From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man - Chapter 397
c387 Image “all talk and no action” fanatic believers
The Emperor statue is 15 meters high and is also painted in gold.
The details of his exclusive power armor, Emperor’s claws and Emperor’s sword are presented by the Terminator acting as the sculptor and Hextech robots, but the head of the Emperor statue is wearing a golden helmet that covers his face.
“Oh my God! Brother, is that the legendary human emperor? So tall!”
Even though she has never seen the face of the emperor, Carrie is still very excited after seeing the towering and magnificent statue.
After all, during the period of church rule, they had no time to wander around the streets, let alone visit the church.
At that time, only high-level believers or knights of the Knights Templar were qualified to enter the church to worship the statue of Jesus Christ and the exquisite murals.
How could they, who were not even full, have the opportunity to come to the church?
However, after the human empire ruled their town, it directly abolished the privileged class and allowed them to eat meat every meal.
As for the Imperial Church, everyone can enter.
“.”
At this moment.
Listening to his sister’s sigh, Krontor, as an older brother, also nodded slightly.
He was more mature than his peers and sister, and knew that the statue of the Emperor must have been artistically processed.
The real Emperor, in theory, could never reach a height of 15 meters.
But he had briefly read the Human Code and knew that the so-called “Imperial Angels”, that is, the Astartes with an average height of more than 2.3 meters, were the descendants of the Human Emperor.
Then the real Emperor must not be “short”.
In addition to the Imperial statue standing at the forefront of the church, there are also exquisite portraits printed on its walls.
It’s just that the content of the Imperial murals, unlike the church, does not promote the great deeds of God, heaven, and Jesus, but instead records the history of the Empire in a “plain and unpretentious” way.
For example, how the Emperor fought in the wilderness in the “mortal” stage, and then founded Atlas, and opened the first space gate connecting other universes.
Then, there are Sanguinius and Guilliman who “fell from the sky” in the Emperor’s arms, etc.
In addition, there are wooden benches on both sides of the church for people who come to watch to rest.
The Imperial Church will not make any explicit requirements, nor will it allow local residents to go to worship.
However——
Boom. Boom
At this time, the hard light screen not far in front of the Emperor’s statue is playing extremely intense battle images.
And the content of the picture is the scene of the colossal Athena throwing the Spear of Victory with all her might.
The bloody wall pierced by the Spear of Victory was suddenly covered by golden light.
Then, the adult Astartes of the 1st Company of the Dark Angels, a total of 800 Greek sub-gods and gray knights, led the seemingly boundless imperial army and charged in the direction of the light burst.
Obviously, the content played on the hard light screen was the individual footage of Athena’s conquest of Jerusalem not long ago.
And these individual footages were integrated and edited by Serin and the stupid AI of the 1st Company of the Dark Angels, forming an action and war blockbuster that is no less than that shot by Atlas Entertainment.
“Wow!”
“Oh my god”
“So she is really a goddess.”
The local residents sitting on the solid wood benches all opened their eyes and watched the war images intently.
Before the human empire interfered with the “One Three” universe, how could the local residents have an entertainment life?
Even in the human hinterland far away from the frontier and war, there are very few entertainment projects for the rich and powerful to enjoy.
So when faced with the single-soldier camera like action and war blockbusters, the local residents naturally watched it intently.
Even Kronto and Carrie became part of the audience.
Through the single-soldier camera in front of them, most residents recognized and worshipped the empire and the emperor more.
Athena, who can increase her own giant to 200 meters and can disintegrate the army of hell by herself, is “willing” to serve the empire and the emperor.
In addition, the Empire has brought about earth-shaking changes in their lives in just one month, so they naturally have a stronger sense of identity and begin to resist the church that used to deceive and criticize them with words such as “suffering is a blessing” and “to go to heaven”.
Moreover, didn’t the church say that God would eventually save the people?
Why was it the Human Empire that gave them a new life?
And the hell and demons that have ravaged their world for nearly a thousand years have no resistance at all when facing the army of the Human Empire.
What supreme and only “true God” God is obviously a coward hiding in heaven.
They don’t believe in and don’t respect “you”, so they have to endure torture and blame. This is simply a “thing” that is submissive to the enemy and fights against themselves.
Compared with Athena, it is not even worthy of “carrying shoes”.
So most of the residents in the church, including Kronto and Carrie, are watching the individual camera with relish to learn about the “Jerusalem War” that broke out not long ago.
But a very small number of “residents” also showed surprised expressions and focused on watching the individual camera, but their eyes revealed resentment.
The Inquisition personnel who were standing in the corner of the church and were responsible for maintaining order had actually noticed the very small group of “residents” a long time ago.
Since this frontier town came under imperial rule and the town’s infrastructure was in place, the town began to open to the outside world.
Ordinary residents within the territory of the Holy Roman Empire can freely enter and exit the town.
You can come here to watch and seek the truth about the recent war, and you can also come here to trade.
But as the hundreds of thousands of elites from the Holy Roman Empire retreated to the hinterland of Europe, the top leaders of the Roman Empire and the Church strictly prohibited residents from going privately to the border towns occupied by the human empire.
However, there are still many residents who have heard that border towns are like “paradise on earth”, either with their families or alone, seeking asylum from the human empire.
Therefore, the population in cities and towns at this stage is constantly increasing, and the available labor force is also growing.
However, among the newcomers, there are many guys with their own goals.
Such as fanatical believers and nuns who are die-hard loyal to the church.
The moment they entered the town, they were targeted by the Investigation Department, the Advance Team and the Inquisition Department.
However, in order to uncover “evidence” of the interference of heavenly forces in the physical universe and to find a way to the heavenly plane, the various departments did not directly eliminate these believers and nuns.
At the same time, we are still tracking and investigating these guys who think they have no trace of exposure.
Until today.
More than half of the fanatical believers and nuns gathered at the Imperial Church in the center of the town.
Therefore, the Heretic Tribunal specially invited two company guards to allow the residents of the town to come and worship. In addition to satisfying the curiosity of the residents, it can also appropriately improve the overall strength of the encirclement and suppression of fanatical believers and nuns.
Of course, the most important point is that the Heretic Tribunal must set a good standard.
Let those guys who have fanatical beliefs in God and heaven take the initiative to be exposed, and you need to ensure the safety of the residents.
soon.
The picture displayed on the hard light screen showed the imperial army led by Athena attacking Jerusalem.
And the Gate of Hell, which should have been filthy, was purified to a considerable extent by the impact of psychic energy released by Athena.
Then, Athena led the Greek minor gods and Gray Knights directly through the gate of hell and disappeared into the physical universe.
After watching this, Kronto, Carrie and everyone present thought that the image content played on the hard light screen would end here. Who would have thought that the screen would only fall into darkness for a short time, and then they would be presented with a clear scene of the dark forest. .
! ! !
Watching the dark forest and Charon carrying the souls of the dead across the river through the screen, everyone present looked extremely surprised.
Before the border towns came under the rule of the human empire, both the young Kronto and Carrie, as well as the adult local residents, were familiar with the Bible compiled by the church, and some residents were even able to “recite it backwards and forwards.”
Therefore, everyone instantly realized that the scene shown on the hard light screen was exactly the legendary dark forest.
Even if the local residents have no knowledge and have not received formal education, they still understand that only paladins can withstand the high temperature and erosion of the gate of hell and go to the hell plane to perform sacred tasks.
Athena, the Gray Knights and the Greek minor gods also broke into the hell plane in a “living human body”. The most important thing is
Athena went straight “ramping” all the way.
The goddess first casually waved the spear of victory in her hand, and then easily killed the newly “reborn” greedy she-wolf, ambitious lion and hedonistic leopard.
These three “native” hell creatures were killed by the company guards led by Galan Clovis, and then completely eliminated by Athena, and turned into [trace nutrients] that fueled the Emperor’s spiritual power.
After all, the Spear of Victory used by Athena was a weapon “reforged” by the Emperor himself.
The pure spiritual energy contained in the Spear of Victory has a “special attack” effect on subspace and subspace-like creatures.
Immediately afterwards.
Athena and her party also used “threats” to force Charon to carry them across the River of Sorrow and reached the first level of hell, Limbo.
Of course, before boarding the ship, Athena temporarily shed her colossal body and used her original goddess appearance to accompany the Gray Knights and Greek minor gods across the river.
“Can you still do this?”
“In the legend, isn’t Charon supposed to have a fiery temperament?”
“That is the goddess of war. If Charon gets really angry, he will be stabbed to death by the goddess.”
“Tsk, tsk, I didn’t expect the ferryman from hell to be afraid of death.”
Seeing Charon’s cowardly performance, the fear of the so-called gods and demons among the local residents suddenly dropped sharply.
Charon is afraid of death, so what is the difference between “I” who is also afraid of death?
Then, everyone witnessed the scene of Lingbo on the first level through individual soldier cameras.
As Athena became a colossus again and maintained her giant body, she led the Greek minor gods and gray knights to advance towards the abyss in the center of Limbo.
The residents present gradually discovered that most of the trapped souls were souls who seemed to be “honest” and had not committed any major mistakes during their lifetimes.
At this moment, the residents have also woken up. Without the intervention of the human empire, wouldn’t they also be sent to Lingbo after their death?
Keep watching.
What the picture shows is that Athena relied on the Spear of Victory and the Emperor’s guns to completely crush the lords and demon armies of all levels in hell.
Those hell lords who were described by the church as having unrivaled strength and extremely evil, showed an appearance of being more afraid of death than humans when fighting against Athena.
Either they knelt down to beg for mercy, or swore allegiance, and wanted to “abandon the dark and join the light” to fight for the human emperor.
Unfortunately, Athena looked down on those hell lords at all, and killed them directly with a spear and a gun without any hesitation.
The last scene of the single-soldier camera was the scene where Galan Clovis and the company champion and company guards successfully killed Satan with their “mortal bodies”.
The scene of Galan obtaining the emperor’s “bend” and “ravaging” Satan with absolute strength was also played through the hard light screen.
At this point, the local residents sitting in the church seemed to have completely lost their awe of the gods and demons described by the church, but they were more loyal and respectful to Athena and the human emperor.
The Emperor and the Goddess, unlike God and Heaven, can only talk but not do, but can really bring down “miracles”.
Moreover, the Hell Plane was destroyed by the Goddess Athena and the “Emperor Angels (Astartes)”, so what else do they have to fear?
Just accept the rule of the Empire and enjoy a gradually improving life.
On the contrary, the fanatics and nuns who are extremely devout to God and Heaven, after patiently watching the video for nearly two hours, revealed endless resentment in their eyes.
Because the individual strength shown by Athena far exceeds their previous speculation, and it also confirms that the Hell Plane has been destroyed by the Human Empire.
The enemy is strong, and these fanatics naturally feel angry and helpless.
After watching all the videos, these fanatics got up and left, holding the free paper “Human Code”, mixed with the crowd of local residents and left the Imperial Church.
However, a vanguard member wearing a nano-combat suit and maintaining a hidden state found a fanatical nun with cold sweat on her forehead, sitting blankly on a solid wood bench, her eyes fixed on the hard light screen.
The vanguard member who noticed the abnormality immediately notified the staff in the church to prepare to evacuate the local people.
At the same time, the vanguard member also informed the combat units deployed in advance inside and outside the church of this abnormal situation.
“.”
But before the staff could complete the evacuation, the fanatical nun began to twitch all over, her eyes rolled up, and her body could not stop rapidly expanding, and it was unrecognizable in just a few seconds.
The clothes were torn by bloody and sticky tissue, and the nun had turned into a huge living tumor.
! !
Seeing this, Krontor hurriedly grabbed his sister Carrie’s right hand and ran to the square outside the Imperial Church.
