Chapter 574 Listen to the Emperor's story about him and Malcador (3K+)
There was no pity for Curze who was beaten to his knees and begged for mercy. The next person to appear was Malcador (trembling voice), the eternal regent of the empire, who changed the fate of the empire single-handedly and was the scepter filled with the spirit of gold.

Seeing Hogg beating Curze and dubbing himself, the Emperor, who was immune to all poisons, didn't care. Not only did he ignore Curze's call for help, he also hummed a song. With his good friend around, he completely forgot about his silly son.

Since Malcador did not have to retrain a small account like the other Primarchs, the preparation work was extremely simple. He only needed to create a physical body through flesh shaping, and finally let the Emperor put the soul fragments into it, and he could get a complete Malcador.

Hogg didn't believe that the Emperor didn't do anything tricky in the process of resurrecting Malcador. He immediately kicked away Curze, whose face was covered in bruises, and pulled Bayer forward to watch.

Opening the cultivation chamber that had completed its mission, Hogg laughed out loud on the spot, snatched the 50 Dogecoins directly from Bayer's hand, and like a second-rate person, he put his arm around the emperor's shoulders and laughed obscenely:
"Sure, yellow-skinned guy, it turns out that Makado was so young back then. Look at his little appearance, he can even spurt out water if you pinch him. Are you hiring child laborers?"

The emperor remained calm, as thick-skinned as a city wall. He was not affected by Hogg's words at all. He just said calmly:

"I remember it was a sunny afternoon. During that period, humans had not yet completely declined due to the warp storm. In a garden, I saw my friend sitting on a swing, delicately wrapped by a servant, like a porcelain doll. This was our first meeting."

Seeing the Emperor begin to reminisce about the past, Hogg hurriedly took out a small stool and ate snacks with the Great Sage and Curze, who were attracted by the gossip, while listening to the Emperor talk about his glorious years.

"In that era, humans were not as ignorant as they are now. Everyone believed in science and thought that science and technology could solve all problems. In fact, that was indeed the case. The powerful power of science and technology brought unlimited prosperity to mankind. At the same time, the arrogant humans also ignored the dark gaze behind them.

Another emperor has told me your origins, Hogg. Just like the era you live in, the human federation during the 25th century can satisfy all your fantasies about technology, but..."

"But unrestrained technology drives people crazy, and gradually turns them into reckless technology lunatics. Am I right, Huangpizi?"

The emperor nodded and took the lemon juice that Hogg handed to him. Perhaps because half a spoonful of sugar was added, the emperor did not feel sour this time, but it still had a familiar taste.

“At that time, I was not an emperor at all. I was just an immortal who was feared by the Jin people. But generally speaking, I had a good relationship with the Jin leaders who controlled the Federation. After all, I lived long enough to be hired as a special consultant, and my life was much better than it is now.

However, an Iron Man rebellion directly awakened everyone's fantasy. The shattered stars were no joke. Compared with this great rebellion that swept the entire federation, our so-called Great Expedition was just a game of house.

Most of the Death Stars in the Empire were once transformed planets that could be colonized by humans, but because of that rebellion, these planets were directly transformed into real death worlds.

There is no need to talk about the glorious past. You only need to know that even though it is called the Dark Age of Technology, the humans of that period were indeed the true overlords of the galaxy, and were able to fight hard with the Eldar Empire that inherited the legacy of the Old Saints. "

The Emperor was right. Through archaeological excavations, the four could imagine how powerful the Human Federation once was. Take the power armor used by Space Marines for example. This thing was a complete variation of the protective clothing worn by human miners at the time.

There are many examples of civilian-to-military conversion, such as the Knight Mech, which was originally used as colonial security equipment. It can also clear native colonial plants, hunt small animals and perform logging operations. It is as high-end as the Country Garden security booth at the entrance of a residential community where a five-star general is on duty.

It’s not that the Knight Mech is not useful, it’s just that in the era of human prosperity, the Knight Mech was a completely ordinary commodity. Anyone with a little bit of resources could buy it directly, similar to the current precision grenade launcher, which was completely capable of circulation.

Seeing that the four people understood the general situation, the Emperor continued:

"You all know roughly what happened afterwards. In short, an unprecedented subspace storm completely cut off the connection between humans and the colonies. In just a few thousand years, they completely lost their original technological level and became technological barbarians who used neutron collapse cannons as battering rams.

Don't ask me why I didn't preserve the science and technology of that time. I was not that strong at that time. I was just an immortal with some psychic powers. The inheritance of technology is systematic. It is impossible for me to preserve so much technology by myself.

When I drifted through the subspace and returned to Terra again, it was thousands of years later. As far as I could see, the entire Holy Terra had turned into a wasteland, full of technological barbarians bombarding each other with weapons of destruction. "

"And then?" Perhaps because of the beating by Hogg, Curze's gossip fire was burning. While chewing spicy strips in his mouth, he urged the emperor to tell him the rest of the history.

After taking another sip of lemon juice to moisten his throat, the Emperor's face finally showed a ripple, and he recounted the beginning of why he became the Lord of Mankind: "After returning to Terra, because I really couldn't win, I drifted to the Middle East and became a small and powerful local snake, or a technological warlord, with a Shamatte hairstyle on my head, living like a wasteland lunatic, until I met a special organization called the Sigillite.

Coincidentally, this secret organization whose mission is to protect human history includes Malcador. This is our second meeting, and he is still a 6132-year-old child. "

Finally hearing the key plot, the Great Sage, who had been watching the show silently, began to overclock her processor. She instantly imagined more than 300 different versions of the story, immersed in her inexplicable fantasy, and asked:

“Your Majesty, could it be that once you unleash your tyranny, this organization called the Seal Holders will kneel down and surrender to you? Not only will you gain the first batch of brainless followers, but you will also gain a confidante like Malcador. In the end, hehehehe… I love to see this.”

Seeing his teacher going crazy, Hogg quickly took out a can of liquid nitrogen coolant and poked it in to lower the temperature of the Great Sage's processor and calm her down. Although he was indeed curious, it couldn't be so bloody, right?
As expected, the emperor sighed and said that you should read less Long Aotian novels in the future, as the fact is completely the opposite.

"I'm not being domineering. Because of my different ideologies, I was beaten to my knees by this secret organization. I almost had to read the bar to play the resurrection match. Can you imagine that I was defeated in terms of psychic power? In the end, I won the war only because of Malcador's backstab.

Like I said before, I just wanted to be a stay-at-home guy and do some scientific research when I had nothing to do. Although I was worried about the future of mankind, I really thought so at the time. I didn’t think about becoming the so-called Lord of Mankind until Malcador came to me.

I still remember the conversation that day. From then on, Neos retreated to the second line, and the Lord of Mankind named the Emperor stood up from Holy Terra. Malcador also became my right-hand man, and together with other Eternal friends, he started the tragic war of unification of Holy Terra.

When this human home planet was unified, the road to becoming a god began. My power began to awaken, growing stronger day by day. Coupled with the convergence of human faith, I completely embarked on the path of invincibility.

As for why they all left me later, I was not wrong anyway, it was the whole world that was wrong! I am the master of mankind, and they should listen to me.

When only his old friend Malcador was left to assist him, he transformed into this appearance in order to maintain his dignity, and I made a deal with the devil, using the future of mankind as a bargaining chip to create a descendant called the Primarch. "

The Emperor's voice echoed in the laboratory, but a child's voice interrupted his speech:
"Come on, Neos, I have advised you countless times, but you insisted on doing what you wanted to do and refused to listen to me. I really want to smash your head with my cane, especially when you left me alone in Terra to handle the affairs of the entire empire. Damn it, why did you give birth to so many unlucky sons?"

Without feeling the slightest bit ashamed by his old friend's insults, the Emperor simply picked up Malcador and used his three-piece set of admitting mistakes, crying and acting like a spoiled child, which always worked well with the Primarchs, in an attempt to continue to fool this destined worker.

With this charming appearance, the Emperor is confident that he can handle any situation, but Malcador, who obviously doesn't want to be a beast of burden, doesn't buy it. He punches the Emperor in the eye socket twice and continues to attack:
"Bah! Don't listen to his lies. One out of every ten words he says is definitely a lie. When we first met, he actually disguised himself as a woman to trick me. He fooled me for 20 years. In the end, he revealed his true identity and said that he liked platonic love, which made all the immortals laugh at me.

And when we met for the second time, this bastard pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger. He even launched a shameless sneak attack. When all of us were resting, he put laxatives in the food. We were almost dehydrated to death. Then he rushed over to pick up the ready-made food and tricked me into working for him.

I am a 5000-year-old comrade who was ruined by Neos. When we were fighting Terra, you rushed to the front and left all the logistics to me. I didn't say anything. But when you were on the expedition, you took such big steps and left all the government affairs to me. I only had 15 minutes of rest every day.

You really deserve to die! "

After his true colors were exposed, the emperor could only stand there grinning foolishly and apologizing in a servile manner, which made Curze stunned and his worldview was shattered on the spot.

Hogg and the Great Sage looked at each other, quietly turned off the cameras hidden in their bodies, and prepared to take this thing back to spread rumors about Old Man Huang.

After spending a full three hours, the Emperor finally coaxed Malcador and swore to heaven that he would never let him handle all government affairs alone in the future. Malcador, under the Emperor's continuous human charm, simply believed it!
In order to fully master this technology, the Emperor chose his wolf-shepherd between Horus and Sanguinius, handed the angel and the fragment of Corax to Hogg, and the two performed the final resurrection ceremony at the same time.

However, looking at the two pieces of Warp fragments in his right hand and the ball of light representing the memories of the two Primarchs in his left hand, Hogg was suddenly a little confused. He seemed to have forgotten which was which. Under the Emperor's suspicious gaze, he could only bite the bullet and do it.

"Forget it, nothing should happen, let's get started!"
