Chapter 2740 Mortals who despise gods
“Thank you, I’m not polite.”
Thanks, Fabius picked up a fruit and found that it was hot, like As if fresh from the fire, soft on the outside but still hard in the center.
He took a bite, and the pulp was very hot, making his tongue and the corners of his mouth twitch. However, it had not been cooked in any way, it was naturally in this state, but it was absolutely delicious.
After finishing the meal in two or three bites, he reached out and grabbed the golden roasted meat and started biting it greedily. It was very rude and indecent. Soshyan just watched indifferently not far away.
While chewing, Fabius poured the wine from the flask into the empty cup, raised the cup and smelled it, then let out a sound of admiration, then drank it in a big gulp, and poured himself another cup, even though his stomach was almost Singing began.
“.I heard that you will see me after you are captured.”
More than ten minutes later, when Fabius’s devouring speed finally slowed down, Soshyan finally slowed down. Xu asked:
"Then who sent you here? Is it the guidance from Slaanesh or another chaotic evil god?"
"I do not believe in chaos."
Fabius nodded slightly, raised his glass as if to celebrate, and then drank it in one gulp. After putting down the glass, he casually wiped his greasy hands on his prison uniform.
"I only believe in human reason and scientific evidence. This is my eternal proposition."
Soshiyang sneered.
“You who are pretending to be among the followers of Chaos every day are like a maggot crawling out of a cesspit, but you claim that you are not touched by anything.”
“Oh, my God, Mr. Soshyan, could you speak more politely, considering that I have just finished my meal?"
"Because this is the most appropriate example. In fact, you are just a filthy maggot in my eyes, even more so than other Chaos believers. They can at least declare their beliefs generously, but you are not only depraved, but also hypocritical. Deceiving yourself."
Fabius burped and then shook his head.
“I didn’t expect that even though we have never met, you can still have such a bad impression on me.”
“Because any self-justification you have is vulnerable to your behavior. , okay, now you just need to answer the question honestly."
"Just tell me."
"Who sent you."
"My own is coming."
"But Fulgrim summoned you, but I guess you won't listen to him, In other words, you came to me specifically? Then how can you explain why you teamed up with Enkali to attack the Royal Court?"
"How could it be otherwise if Fulgrim sent my things to monitor? "Oh? You wanted to banish Enkali because she was sent by Fulgrim to spy on you! What a liar!" If Mader hadn’t been there, Fabius, wouldn’t you have had other plans?”
Fabius raised his hands in a gesture of peace.
"Don't be nervous, I am a person who likes to make various filings. I just think that strong enough action is necessary for you to come forward."
"Okay, just treat it like this. , then what are you looking for me for?"
"I want to know the secret about you."
Soshiyang looked at the other party and suddenly laughed after a moment.
"Hahahahaha! Spider, some of the small successes in the past seem to make you too self-righteous. Do you think that you alone are worthy of participating in this game of the gods? Do you know what the secrets in me represent? The Emperor, the Ada gods, There are too many destructive powers, star gods, Necrontyr, and ancient saints. None of these powers can be touched by you now, mortal."
Fabius sat cross-legged on the ground, calm. He stared at Soshiyang, and then said slowly:
"Then have you ever asked yourself, why are mortals subject to the so-called gods?"
Soshiyang blinked.
“What?”
"I usually don't talk about the so-called concept of gods, because it is a fool's delusion, an illusion formed by mortals' own troubles, whether it is the God of Chaos or the Ada gods, or it is worshiped by foolish believers. God-Emperors, whether they are great gods or small gods, these nihilistic tyrants exert their ruthless will in the souls of fragile mortals, and these mortals are subject to these concepts of 'gods' just because they are weak. Thoughts, but I firmly believe that we are no less than these beings of consciousness, no less than gods worthy of love and worship, no less extraordinary than possessing magical powers or realizing unfulfilled potentials. We are born, we live, and we die! , in the brief space between our first and last breath, we are always and forever at the mercy of forces that trivialize our existence, cheapen our struggles, and enslave us as we bend and Exuding their power on the backs burned by the sun, however, this is not the path that humans should take."
Soshiyang frowned slightly, although he had long known that the other party had a different thinking than ordinary Chaos Space Marines. , but these remarks are really unique and weird coming from a person like Fabius.
Is he really a staunch atheist?
Weird
After thinking for a moment, Soshiyang replied:
"Since the birth of human civilization, all social forms have always emphasized one thing. Individuals must serve a certain cause or someone. It is not a dishonorable thing to serve a powerful being who can see further -"
"No, no, no, this is a very disgraceful thing."
Fabius raised a finger like a professor in the academy.
“Because we rarely have a choice, although we can choose which gods to feed with our blood, sweat and tears, labor and sacrifices...but what if we don’t want to feed any gods at all? What if we seek What about serving a simple idea, a higher purpose, a deeper abstraction, without offering service or allegiance to any god?"
He said these words easily, as if to declare one? Simple facts: Fire is hot, water is wet, ice is cold…
Soshyan could probably tell that Fabius really believed in these.
“Since the birth of the empire, all life and glory belong to the emperor. You should know better than anyone else.”
“But the emperor is not a god. He has always been the existence I yearned for. I have walked with him and breathed the same air with him, and let me tell you the truth, he never wanted to be worshiped by fools! He didn't want to be a god, he hated the idea, if he still had eyes! This broken, ignorant slave empire will definitely make him feel sick! Humanity needs a leader, there is no doubt about it. I once firmly believed that he was the best choice. But the Emperor failed because of his mistakes, caution and conservatism. , eventually fell into the flames of subspace, so we can no longer be cautious, otherwise humanity will suffer a second unbearable failure.”
