Infinity of flame

I have to say that in various stories, the Zerg is a classic villain.This is true whether it is in StarCraft or Starship Troopers.And the Tyranid Zerg in this Warhammer world is no exception.

This kind of creature that can't eat enough, and everything that goes by will be eaten up, is not a race of the Milky Way itself.Instead, they come from distant galaxies beyond tens of thousands of light-years.It is said that they have eaten at least two galaxy groups similar to the size of the Milky Way, which is really cruel and outrageous.

"So, I'm curious how those bugs traveled hundreds of thousands of light-years to the Milky Way? It takes tens of thousands of years for light to travel this distance, and they are obviously only slower than light. Did not starve to death on the way”

After communicating with nerd Lin Xiao, Ye Guanhuo felt more and more that this is really an unsolved mystery.

At this time, it has been three days since they arrived at the planet Cancer, which is similar to the landing of aliens.Although I learned a lot about the customs, I found nothing about the traces of the so-called bugs. [

"Shi Heng, can you feel that this woman has a Zerg aura?"

As he spoke, he watched coldly in the distance a woman who was accused of having a relationship with the Zerg, was cruelly dragged down to the square by an imperial church priest in a holy white robe, and carried out a medieval-like burning at the stake.

Faced with this kind of barbaric menstrual behavior that humans only had in the Middle Ages, the people around were not only not angry but showed joy of religious fanaticism on their faces, cursing women loudly, and showing excited expressions one by one as if a grand carnival was going on. Smiles, wild applause.

For this kind of barbaric atrocities, Ye Guanhuo was very strange at first, but after the information he got from Lin Xiao and the information he got from the surrounding people these days, he almost knew why.

The ignorant education carried out by the upper echelons of the human empire in order to rule has made everyone in the entire empire crazily worship the emperor.And the dissemination of knowledge and technology is not allowed.For example, a skilled soldier can disassemble the laser gun in his hand within 1 minute, but you have to ask him to tell what each part is used for.He doesn't know at all.Many foolish people even think that the reason why the machine can start is because there is a "spirit" in it.

So because of this kind of foolish education, the technology in the entire Warhammer world is very deformed.On the one hand, it has warships that are only found in science fiction, and it can also travel through subspace in time and space; but on the other hand, people are numb, and the collapsed knowledge system makes most people unable to understand why things are like this.The populace of the empire relied on witchcraft and religious rituals to allay fears.Because they are incapable of self-reflection or breakthrough thinking.Those who regularly operate technological products know only the various rituals that must be strictly performed to keep the machinery going.Many people really believe that knowledge is a power.

"Ignorance, superstition, excessive worship, ignorance, barbarism, and cruelty permeate the entire human world." Looking at the woman tied to the stake and about to be burned, Shi Heng did not answer Ye Guanhuo's question directly, but expressed his expression Said: "Although this planet is only the tip of the iceberg of the human world, one leaf will know the world's fall. Judging from the resentment and negative emotions that fill the entire planet. The entire human empire is constantly falling. Although the speed of the fall is Very slowly, but it is gradually being corrupted every moment."

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed: "Even if it's not so what? This planet is full of religious persecution. It doesn't matter whether she really has something to do with the Zerg. The important thing is that the priests of the state religion of the empire have judged her to be a Something to do with the devil. Even if we rescue her, she will be ostracized by the religiously brainwashed people."

"Get those priests to change their words and declare her a guinea pig?"

"Impossible. The bloody and cruel state religion of the empire. I don't know how many times darker than the Inquisition in the Middle Ages." Shi Heng smiled bitterly: "When we investigated the history of this world, I found that no one gave those who were judged to follow the Those who had an affair with the devil overturned the verdict, but they all died. Even the high-ranking state church officials in charge of an entire star field will be judged by the higher-level state church personnel to have a relationship with the devil and be executed. If these priests now Declaring that this woman is innocent, they will probably be judged by the higher-level state church personnel as being corrupted by demons right away? In short, this state religion established to worship the emperor. Once the trial is issued, it is absolutely not allowed to change its words, even if it is Wrong, wrong. You know, there was once a heretic judge who, without any evidence, just relied on his own subjective judgment to 'purify' all the billions of people on an entire planet."

Would you rather kill [-] billion by mistake than miss one?

This is really a disgusting world

Ye Guanhuo's eyes were stern.Originally for this human empire.In the case of constantly fighting against the evil gods and demons of the subspace, the forces of chaos, all kinds of strange and powerful aliens, and the Tyranids for hundreds of thousands of years, they can still occupy three points in the vast galaxy. I feel a little goodwill and admiration for the second site.

But now it's almost gone.

The performance on stage is still going on.

Wearing a robe representing pure white and holiness, a priest full of divine justice.With pity and compassion beyond humanity: "You are all citizens of the empire and part of the great human race. We defeated those damn bugs that only appear in nightmares in the Far East star field , we have been fighting those demon cultists who should be burned [-] times for ten thousand years, firmly suppressing them in the Eye of Terror, we have defeated countless alien races and chaos cultists, and occupied two-thirds of the entire galaxy , as human beings, you have every reason to be proud of your blood!"

Speaking of this, his pity and compassion gradually converged, replaced by solemnity: "Since 5000 years ago, the great holy emperor came to the world, led mankind to crusade, created the human empire, created the golden age, wiped out The number of alien aliens with deep malice towards human beings proves that we humans should be the masters of the entire galaxy! We humans are destined to be the masters of the entire universe!"

"You all know that the reason why we can achieve these achievements is because the blood flowing in our blood vessels is our noble human blood! Therefore, the interior of the empire must be kept pure! Anyone who dares to come into contact with ugly aliens will be punished. It is a stain on your own human blood, a betrayal of the empire! A betrayal of mankind! An intolerable vicious betrayal of the great and holy Emperor!!!”

When he said the emperor, he had a fanatic expression on his face, and the last sentence was almost roared.His face was indescribably cruel and ferocious, as if the original pity and compassion were just an illusion that had never appeared before, he suddenly pointed at the miserable woman tied to the pillar, and said loudly to the audience with a grinning grin: "For What should we do about this kind of traitor who actually pollutes the blood of mankind and betrays the empire and the emperor?!"[

"Long live the Emperor!!! Traitors must die!!!"

"Eternal life of the emperor!!! Burn her to death!!!"

"The Emperor is always watching us!!! Kill her!!!"

"Burn her!!! Burn her!!! Long live humanity!!! Long live the Emperor!!!"

Like igniting a powder keg, the atmosphere of the audience was instantly ignited.Everyone, regardless of male or female, old or young, high or low, everyone seems to be transformed into the most devout believer, screaming frantically with all the strength in his body, with a frenzied expression on his face, even if his voice is blocked The hoarse who shouted Po Bian didn't care either.

The noisy and chaotic voices finally converged into a raging sound wave roaring like a frenzy: burn her to death!Burn her!Burn her! "

The earth seemed to be trembling non-stop from the frenzy of the sound.The faces of the people in the sound wave are distorted and serious, holy and ugly, pious and vicious.And the miserable woman who was tied to the stake, under the direction of the surging crowd, opened her mouth in despair and seemed to want to say something, but what she said would only be covered by the surging sound, leaving no trace of it. Traces, not to mention she couldn't tell at all.Because from the moment she opened her mouth, she could see that she didn't have a tongue, or even teeth, which were clearly pulled out one by one.

Ye Guanhuo, who watched all this coldly, clenched his fists unconsciously.

It's disgusting

"I want to save her."

Lin Xiao, who was usually laughing and joking, but who showed off his image as a wretched house, suddenly made a sound.Under Ye Guanhuo's staring eyes, he said in an unusually serious manner: "I know this behavior is stupid. For example, what should I do after saving her? After we leave, what will happen to her in a world where everyone is hostile to her?" Survival? And this is an extra problem, not in line with our interests, and erecting an extra powerful enemy." Speaking of this, he laughed: "But I really want to save her. It has to do with justice and kindness. Because in the end , I am not a good person, as long as I can survive, I will lie, act cute, pretend to be stupid, and kill people."

"In order to survive, I will not hesitate to stain my hands with the blood of the innocent."

"But I really want to save her now. It feels like I want to drink water when I'm thirsty, or I want to eat when I'm hungry. It's a strong instinct to fill something. But even so, if I still I'm a dead house, I just pretend to be my grandson without saying a word, right? So I'm really not a good person, my first thought is to protect myself. But now I happen to have the power to satisfy my inner desire on the premise of protecting myself need."

"So I'm sorry Captain, can I save her?"

Ye Guanhuo took a deep look at this guy, and then smiled a little surprised and relieved:

"What do you want to do in the future, just say hello, you don't have to explain so much; and don't repeat yourself here, people will be burned to death!" (To be continued.
