"

"Furthermore, if we intervene rashly, I'm worried that the price we will pay will be too high..."

"In addition, there are other forces on Huagai Star."

"We have discovered other forces so far, including subspace demons and some ancient alien races. Because of this, I think we need to proceed with caution and continue to observe for a while?"

Horus chose his words carefully, trying to make the Emperor understand his current predicament and certain actions, and to give him more time.

"Is that so?"

However, the Emperor did not intend to listen to that, nor was he willing to believe what Horus told him.

"Horus..."

"listen!"

"I don't care what your reasons are, and I don't need to hear so many excuses!"

Then, the Emperor's voice, with its calm words roared like a storm and swept towards Horus, who was already feeling a little uneasy and guilty.

"You've delayed for too long..."

"It's just a small and remote galaxy. You must take it as soon as possible, whether it's destruction or conquest!"

"I don't want to hear the reasons, I just want the results!"

"Since it's hard to deal with, you can just blow up the planet!"

"On the issue of human unification, no compromise is allowed. No matter who it is or what kind of colonial world it is, they will always have only two choices: surrender or destruction!"

"Did you hear that clearly?"

After saying that, the emperor's expression became even more severe.

The opponent's eyes flashed with almost solidified anger. Even though they were thousands of light years away, even though this was just a communication interface, it did not weaken the terrifying power of the opponent at all.

"!!"

Hearing this, Horus was of course so frightened that his body trembled violently, and then he bowed his head and did not dare to say a word.

Obviously, the Emperor seemed to have heard something from some channels, so even if it was just communication, he could vaguely feel the Emperor's anger, and feel the Emperor's terrifying power that transcended countless light-years and moved towards him.

Come watch.

"yes……"

After a while, until the emperor's aura gradually returned to calm, Horus hurriedly said as if he had come back to his senses:

"But……"

"Father!"

"The humans from the Koprulu Sector have a lot of advanced technology that seems to be from the golden age..."

"As far as we have discovered so far, there are already quantum engines, miniaturized fusion devices, various advanced shields, electromagnetic kinetic energy weapons, mass effect generators, food synthesizers and holographic soldier simulation training systems, etc."

"Is there even a warp engine that can travel at faster than light speeds without entering subspace?"

"In view of this, I thought..."

Most of the above are the latest information collected by Sejanus and others on the Huagai Star.

Although those sounds important, unfortunately, they are not actually what Horus wants most. However, that does not prevent him from using them as excuses and continuing to gain more time and opportunities for one of his plans.

"..."

After listening to Horus' explanation, the Emperor said nothing, but just stared at him expressionlessly.

"..."

And Horus didn't dare to speak rashly, he just waited anxiously and patiently, and even felt his heart tremble at the sight.

However, he knew that today, he was afraid that he would no longer be able to escape the problem no matter what. He had to give an answer that satisfied the emperor in person, and he could not reveal any flaws. Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine what would happen then.

What happened.

So, after hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth tightly, trying to suppress the fear and anxiety in his heart, then took a deep breath and looked at their father firmly again until he

Unexpectedly, I saw a trace of disdain and teasing in the other person's eyes.

"oh?"

"A warp engine that can travel at super-light speeds without entering subspace?"

"Ah!"

"Save it!"

"Horus, my son..."

"Even in Terra's most glorious golden age, which is the period of the most advanced human technology around the 22nd millennium as you know it, there was never such a thing!"

Unfortunately, Horus did not wait long before the Emperor shook his head without hesitation and directly denied the fact that Horus had just said.

"this……"

He was startled for a moment, and then Horus hurriedly continued to elaborate:

"Father, I don't know why you are so sure..."

"but……"

"That does exist!"

Yes, that does indeed exist, but it's just because the sector is very wary of them. All jump engines or aircraft with jump engines are very strictly managed, and the same is true for other equipment. They just can't get it for the time being.

Just a sample.

But it cannot be denied that it really does exist and is not his excuse.

Although Horus also knew that their father, the Emperor, was an extremely powerful psyker and an immortal being: an immortal being with infinite knowledge and power and the use of them, who must have seen all kinds of things in the Golden Age of Mankind.

Such an honor, but he, Horus, promises that what he just said is true and there is absolutely no falsehood!

Although, the true facts he just said are just a cover for a certain purpose of his, it cannot be denied that the humans in the star area do have some good things, and many of them have been confirmed.

of.

Especially which leap technology!

As long as he is well prepared and carries out one of his plans, and as long as he is given a little more time, he will not only be able to get what he wants most, but he can even completely grab what he just said, especially the jump.

engine!

Moreover, as the Emperor's favorite son, Horus had a vague idea that until their father and the Emperor wanted to establish an interstellar empire, it was just a premise in a greater plan.

, is an integral part of it!

And the other part is to use some way to replace subspace navigation as the empire's new instant communication and transportation system after unifying the human colonies, and to minimize the impact of subspace on humanity?

In this way, mankind will obtain a relatively safe and stable environment for survival and evolution under the direct guidance and control of the Emperor, until one day mankind will eventually develop natural immunity to subspace.

That is the Emperor, the ultimate goal of their father!

And all the plans, sacrifices, deaths, heartaches, glory, battles, trials and tribulations over the past forty-eight thousand years will eventually lead to one outcome.

But now, there seems to be a better solution, so Horus feels that he can try again?

Of course, the most important thing is that they can also take chestnuts from the fire!

At that time, their Astartes may not be the part that must be sacrificed, and they can also have an infinite future and obtain true salvation, instead of being like their predecessors who were a transitional product during the unification of Terra.

Like?

"enough!"

"Put away those clumsy lies and ridiculous fantasies!"

"Horus..."

"I hope to receive good news from you within a month, and I will not repeat it a second time."

The Emperor impatiently interrupted some of what Horus wanted to say and stared at him with a stern gaze, not wanting to hear anything more.

"I……"

At first, he looked at the Emperor with some disappointment and frustration, but in the end, Horus lowered his head in submission and reluctantly agreed.

"Yes, Father, I understand."

"I will take down Taiwei Galaxy as soon as possible and complete your order."

However, although his voice was a little trembling and disappointed, it had a hint of firmness and determination.

"You better be!"

However, the emperor, who seemed to have heard something, did not intend to give up.

"Horus."

"Don't waste time."

In the communication, the Emperor's voice was as cold and ruthless as ice and irresistible.
