But for the Human Empire, which relies mainly on violent machines such as the Astartes Space Marines to achieve its rule, there are only two problems that really bother them and are unsolvable, namely transportation and communications.
This is also the decisive factor that determines how much effective rule a regime can maintain in most cases.
Communications mean that no matter how far away from the ruling center a war or rebellion occurs, the central decision-making body can get the news at the first time and make a timely and effective response, ensuring that all threats are nipped in the bud as much as possible, rather than waiting until the other side has grown in size before discovering and sending troops to encircle and suppress it.
The human empire apparently does not have a mature method of intergalactic communication, and can only use a group of psychics called "astropaths" to transmit information through the subspace.
Psykers are notoriously unstable and extremely dangerous, and are also extremely susceptible to warp storms that can completely cut off communication with the center.
Therefore, the Empire's rule over various star regions has always been very loose and fragile. It can only adopt a feudal system such as governors, lords, and nobles to ensure that each region can maintain its own existence even if it cannot contact the central government, and even have a certain military strength to resist foreign invasion.
Transportation means that all planets within the vast territory can be closely connected, whether for trade or cultural exchange, or for large-scale mobilization of resources and troops.
What's more, the powerful Astartes warriors who have been genetically modified are said to be able to capture a city with just one hundred people, capture a planet with just one thousand people, and destroy a civilization with just ten thousand people.
As long as they can be mobilized efficiently, not to mention the evil gods and demons in the subspace, there will be absolutely no problem in launching another great expedition in the real universe to make the human empire great again.
So when Zuo Si took out a mass-produced subspace protection device that was more advanced and safer than the Geller force field, both Sister Grace, who represented the Terran Council, and the Grand Sage of the Mechanicus, who were present, instantly fell into irrepressible excitement and excitement.
The latter even requested to test, disassemble and study it.
Because once the Imperial Navy's space fleet is equipped with such protective devices on a large scale, it means that safety and stability can be greatly improved when traveling through the subspace, while reducing the probability of encountering unexpected situations or even demonic attacks.
This obviously hit the pain point of the Empire, and it was also a temptation that neither the Parliament nor the Mechanicus could refuse.
Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer to the great sage's request without hesitation, and even packed up all the relevant knowledge and technology and gave it to the other party.
The reason why he was so generous was that this knowledge had nothing to do with science. It was completely profound content on the magical side, and was fundamentally different from the theoretical basis mastered by the Mechanicus.
In fact, the subspace of this universe is essentially a chaotic and unreshaped source of magic.
All psykers can actually be considered spellcasters.
However, this source of magic is not stable at all. Instead, it is somewhat similar to the chaotic and wild magic area in the continent of Faerun.
Even those who have undergone rigorous training cannot guarantee what effect they can create by using the subspace energy in the next second, whether it is lightning, flames, explosions, thoughts, or something else that cannot be explained.
Therefore, without a large number of stable spellcasters, it is basically impossible for the Mechanicus to replicate these devices that use magic as the core.
The only thing that can perform similar operations in this universe filled with darkness and depression is the Shuo Oil that has undergone countless rounds of upgrades and enhancements.
First, become an indispensable part of the human empire. This is the first and also the most important step in Zuo Si’s plan.
He wanted to inject the sparkling oil into the interior of the empire, and then disintegrate and control it bit by bit from the middle, making it his own property.
As for the emperor who sits on the golden throne and claims he is not a god...
Zuo Si felt that this guy was more like an aggregate of the consciousness of the entire human race than a single individual.
He is not a specific life, but like the evil god of the Warp, he is shaped by various human emotions, consciousness, hopes, hatred, anger, beliefs and worship.
This is also why when he first appeared and began to establish human hegemony, the imperial truth he emphasized was typical materialism, rational thinking and collectivism, and opposed all religious superstitions.
Because in the eyes of human beings who had just ended the golden age, this was the most ideal and perfect concept and social form.
For this reason, the Emperor even severely punished his Primarch's son who worshipped him as a god, as well as the Astartes Legion under his command.
But the problem is that after the Horus Heresy, the Emperor himself fell into complete silence and could no longer rule and manage the Empire. Moreover, the plan to rebuild the Old Ones' Webway was completely scrapped, and even maintaining the Empire's hegemony over the Galaxy was in jeopardy.
It was at this time that the state religion came into being. On the one hand, it provided the emperor with more powerful power by consolidating faith. On the other hand, it used religion as a basis to unite the entire human race and reduce the division and independence tendencies in remote areas.
Regardless of whether this plan was the Emperor's own wish or the result of some people's cleverness, it undoubtedly pushed the Emperor towards the position of the evil god of the warp.
After all, if the emperor was really born from the collective consciousness of mankind, then as the entire human empire becomes more and more ignorant, stupid, barbaric, arrogant, and arrogant, and the hundreds of trillions of enslaved and oppressed people at the bottom of society are filled with anger and hatred in their hearts, he will naturally be seriously affected.
Therefore, from the moment the state religion was born and became the pillar of the empire, the fate of the emperor himself and even the human race was sealed.
No future!
No hope!
There is no salvation!
There is no so-called savior! There is only endless darkness and despair, and the cold sun projected in the subspace! If you want to change all this, it is impossible to do it with the power of this universe alone.
Unless all living things in the real universe are completely killed in a disaster, the Chaos Gods in the Warp who can draw power from the violent emotional fluctuations of mortals will never die or be destroyed.
Therefore, the best way to deal with the Chaos Evil God of the Warp is to ban all religions and belief worship as much as possible, just like the Imperial Truth promoted by the Human Emperor before, promote materialism and rational thinking, and let more people believe in science rather than God.
It's a pity that he was too hasty in his actions during the Great Crusade. Many times he only required the conquered planets to nominally obey the rule of the Terra government and pay taxes on time. He did not cleanse and rebuild the originally corrupt and backward ruling class at all, nor did he attach importance to education to help those primitive and ignorant people rebuild their outlook on life, world view and values.
So when he sat on the Golden Throne, the imperial truth that he had insisted on promoting collapsed in an instant, and the state religion, which had always been regarded as a heresy that needed to be suppressed or even violently eliminated, took the opportunity to rise and become the mainstream thought.
I have to say, this is really full of black humor and irony.
After all, there is nothing more ridiculous than a staunch materialist and anti-religious person becoming an omnipotent god worshipped by everyone.
If there is a chance, Zuo Si really wants to go to Terra to meet the human emperor and ask him about his views on the current situation of the empire. He believes that it will be a very interesting meeting.
But unfortunately, Zuo Si cannot do this now.
Because Regent Robert Guilliman would never allow an unknown creature of unknown origin to get close to his great father.
Just as Zuo Si was standing on this planet that had been completely eroded and transformed by the sparkling oil, looking bored at the spectacular scene below where various weapons and equipment, ammunition, power mechas, large war machines similar to magic mechas, and parts of space battleships were coming down from the fully automatic assembly line and being transported to designated locations by New Phyrexian creations, a transport ship of the Human Empire suddenly jumped out of the subspace and came into the planet's orbit.
It looked to be about thirty kilometers long, which was definitely a big ship even in this era that advocated giant ships and big guns. However, it was equipped with very few weapons, only some small and medium-sized energy weapons, and two rows of black gun muzzles on the sides.
However, considering that the main purpose of the spacecraft is to transport personnel and supplies of materials and ammunition, it is not surprising that there are fewer weapons.
Obviously, it is absolutely impossible for a warship of this size to land on the surface of a planet.
Because once it is firmly bound by gravity, the energy required to fly into space again with its own weight is an astronomical figure.
So the huge transport ship quickly docked at the spaceport in far-Earth orbit.
About half an hour later, the soldiers above escorted countless mortals with their hands shackled to the ground on the space elevator.
Grace, the senior nun who was ordered to be stationed here for a long time, appeared in front of Zuo Si at the first moment, and bowed gracefully with one hand on her chest.
"Good afternoon, Your Excellency Soth.
According to our previous agreement, the first batch of five million souls has just arrived and is waiting for you to receive them.
Another 30 billion souls are being transported here from various planets.
The Council hopes to obtain more of those Warp Shield Generators as soon as possible, so that they can equip more Imperial Navy fleets.
In addition, we also hope to obtain some spark oil to deal with subspace creatures including demons.
Of course, all demons that have been completely transformed by the oil will be sent back to this planet for you to deal with."
It is not difficult to hear from these words that after obtaining the subspace shield device, sparkling oil and some other gadgets provided by Zuo Si, the Human Empire quickly conducted a series of actual combat tests, and without exception achieved results far beyond expectations.
At this moment, both the Mechanicus and the Parliament have realized that this unknown entity, claiming to be from another universe, has enough technology and power to help the Empire get out of its current desperate predicament.
So they decisively changed their previous strategy of vigilance and caution and wanted to establish a stable alliance with them.
As for the souls of mortals...
I'm sorry, let alone just a few hundred billion or even hundreds of billions, even adding a few zeros would be no problem.
After all, any planet that has reached a certain level of technology has a population of at least several billion or even tens of billions. Every day, the parliament receives reports of colonized planets losing contact or being invaded, ranging from three to five to a dozen or twenty times, and the death toll is often in the billions or tens of billions.
What's more, due to the influence of the Chaos God of the Subspace, the crime rate and evil cult organizations in the human society of this world are simply numerous.
The number of prisoners captured and executed in each star region every year is beyond imagination.
Based on the principle of making full use of all resources, the parliament decided after discussion to pack up and send a number of criminals and alien captives captured from colonized planets here in exchange for what the empire needs most urgently.
Anyway, judging from the battle that broke out before, the relationship between Zuo Si and the Chaos Evil God of the Subspace is most likely hostile.
According to the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, both sides have the prerequisite to become allies, just like the elves led by Evelyne.
"No problem. I can have the foundry add a few more production lines to meet your urgent needs, including a new super star destroyer weapon. As for the spark oil, you can have as much as you want."
Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer without hesitation, and at the same time looked with interest at the nun who was not wearing a power mecha today but a mysterious black gauze skirt.
Through thinking and memory reading, he already knew the intention of the state church and the parliament to send this mature and sexy woman to be by his side, and he enjoyed this mutual temptation and psychological game very much.
After all, those who understand will understand the methods of the Tribunal.
Although these women are given titles such as "the Emperor's Bride" or "the Emperor's Daughter", in reality they often need to make various sacrifices in order to complete their tasks.
In order to investigate whether a planetary governor is a heretic, many sisters of the Inquisition will not hesitate to sacrifice their bodies to sleep with him, and even play many twisted and morbid games, just to get evidence.
Some nuns even developed serious mental illnesses after years of torturing, abusing and interrogating prisoners.
And this is exactly what Slaanesh likes to see the most.
Therefore, some of them will not even live to retire, and will be arrested and detained by the tribunal.
Although Sister Grace has always concealed it very well and never revealed her special hobbies in certain areas.
But in front of Zuo Si, the little secret in her heart had already been exposed.
This woman who had experienced countless dangerous battles not only had a very strong addiction to violence, but also would find ways to find an opportunity to interrogate prisoners alone every once in a while, using some torture methods that could be called art to torture the prisoners to the point where they would rather die than live.
Thanks to the rapid development of medical technology in the human empire during the long-term war, minor injuries such as repairing the epidermis and muscle tissue are nothing at all, otherwise Grace's body would have been covered with dense wounds.
Of course, considering the social environment in this world that extremely suppresses desires and emotions, as well as the constant life-threatening dangers, having some slightly perverted mental and physical hobbies is not worth making a fuss about.
Because this is not an isolated case within the scope of imperial rule, but a common phenomenon.
Not to mention ordinary people, even the emperor's eldest sons and the primarchs with demigod powers, weren't there several who were driven crazy?
Grace obviously hadn't realized that she was already naked at the moment. She still had a reserved smile on her beautiful face and said, "Thank you very much. Excuse me, what is the new super star destroyer weapon you mentioned?"
"Just like its name suggests, it is a device used to directly penetrate and destroy the core of a planet. If I remember correctly, the Empire currently does not have any weapon that can directly destroy a planet or even a star in a short period of time, right?"
As he spoke, Zuo Si turned around and cast his gaze towards a super cannon not far away that was four hundred meters long and consisted of ten charging accelerators.
From its hideous appearance and a large number of crystal-like translucent structures, it is easy to tell that this thing is basically either the fel technology of the Burning Legion, the light-forged technology of the Legion of Light, or a combination of the advantages of both.
Its working principle is also very simple, which is to directly extract energy from the subspace to bombard a target. The effect is similar to some kind of space super weapon, which can directly blow a planet into pieces or release high-energy particles to burn the entire planet into glass.
Due to the high instability of subspace energy, what will happen depends on luck.
Anyway, no matter what the final result is, the planet hit by the cannon will definitely be destroyed.
"Destroy a planet or even a star in an instant?!"
When Grace heard this, her pupils suddenly dilated. She stared at the translucent device that looked a bit like a spire, and her breathing became rapid.
You should know that the most destructive weapon of the human empire today, apart from large-scale orbital bombing, is a virus bomb that was used by Warmaster Horus during the rebellion.
This type of bomb can easily bypass the filtration system of the power mecha and directly kill all life on the surface, including Astartes warriors, and then decompose the corpses and rotten plants to release a flammable and explosive gas.
Once these gases are ignited, a firestorm that destroys everything will immediately form on the entire surface of the planet.
Once the flames died down, there would be virtually no living things left on the planet's surface.
It is with this weapon that the Human Empire can easily and efficiently kill the indigenous inhabitants of a planet, and then sow seeds to rebuild an ecosystem suitable for itself, turning it into an environment suitable for human habitation.
As for really wanting to destroy a planet, the only thing the Empire can do now is to launch a saturation attack on the star where the planet is located, dragging the entire star system into the abyss of destruction by causing violent flares or even supernova explosions.
So star destroyer weapons are obviously very attractive to the Empire.
"That's right! Like the force field generator, it also uses subspace energy, so it does not increase the energy consumption of the battleship itself. And with just one shot, the planet under our feet will collapse within ten minutes and turn into dust floating in the dark deep space. How about it, isn't it a pretty good gadget?"
Zuo Si walked straight to the bottom of the giant cannon, raised his hand and gently tapped the translucent barrel.
moment!
The mysterious patterns and magic runes inside immediately began to flash dazzling light.
This technology was something that even the Adeptus Mechanicus's Mars headquarters had no clue about, and it was even more complex than the remains of Necron technology that Regent Robouti Guilliman had discovered in the areas he previously ruled.
At least, although the technology of the Necrons is so advanced that it amazes human scientists, some basic parts still have certain commonalities.
But these mysterious symbols and patterns before us seem to belong to two completely different systems from existing science.
Fortunately, the Mechanicus has long been accustomed to this.
After all, this wasn’t the first time they had dug up something so completely incomprehensible.
Since this universe has seen the emergence of ancient civilizations such as the Old Saints and the Necrons, relying on archaeology for scientific and technological research and development is not a joke, but can really bring about a qualitative leap in an instant.
There's no need for civilizations like the Old Saints and the Necrons, which are close to god-level. Even finding a few technological creations left over from the golden age of mankind can make the oil men ecstatic.
"You intend to give it to us for use?"
Grace was silent for a long time before she asked cautiously.
通过这段时间的相处,她自认为已经大概了解眼前这个未知存在的性格,态度也从最开始的恐惧和敬畏变得放松了不少。
甚至觉得也许那个机械神甫的推断是对的,对方有一定概率真的来自另外一个平行宇宙的泰拉。
因为在交流过程中,双方从未由于习惯、风俗和对于宇宙的认知不同而产生哪怕一丁点的误会。
要知道即便生活在同一个银河系的不同智慧生物,也会在最初接触的时候在这方面闹出不小的问题,更不用提来自另外一个宇宙的未知存在了。
可左思呢?
不仅可以无障碍的进行交流,而且经常能说出一些只有人类才能理解的讽刺与幽默,逗得所有能够听到的人会心一笑。
而这恰恰是对人类思想和文化高度熟悉才会有的表现。
不过考虑到眼下还处在相互熟悉的阶段,因此议会并没有急着刨根问底,而是在慢慢建立一种信任关系。
等时机成熟的时候,格蕾丝才会把这个问题抛出来试探对方的反应。
“没错!如果你们需要的话,以后每个月我都可以提供一门这样的歼星炮。不过作为交换条件,我希望能够获得这片位于帝国偏远边境星域的统治权。”
左思不慌不忙的提出了自己的要求。
因为光靠脚下这颗星球上的资源可满足不了他的胃口,所以向外扩张势力范围自然也就成了顺理成章的事情。
更何况跟人类帝国之间的灵魂交易,对方实际上提供的都是一个个活生生的人,而不是一根根灵魂棱柱。
这也就意味着如果不想搞一场血腥大屠杀便宜恐虐邪神的话,就必须先跟这些人签订契约然后养起来等他们慢慢自然死亡。
而养活这些人则需要足够大的空间,充足的粮食、日常生活用品和娱乐活动。
格蕾丝沉默了片刻迅速回应道:“这件事情超出了我的权限范围,我需要上报给泰拉议会。”
左思微微点了下头:“可以,我等着你的好消息。哦,差点忘了,我还给你准备了一件小礼物,希望你能喜欢。”
“哦?礼物?给我?”
格蕾丝顿时愣住了。
因为她很清楚自己在整个过程中只是个微不足道的小人物,一个帝国高层与眼前未知存在沟通的传声筒,甚至是必要时刻自我牺牲为人类争取利益的炮灰。
虽然这位大修女一直在展示自己的女性魅力,但对于是否能对一个全身上下完全由高压合金构成的金属人产生作用完全没有一丁点信心。
毕竟机械神教早就已经证明过,当抛弃身体只保留大脑的时候,人类大部分的欲望都会因为失去激素的分泌而降低乃至完全消失。
为了保持人性,机械神教的神甫们甚至会在维生系统上额外加装合成激素的装置,以保持自己旺盛的斗争心和对于科学技术的探索欲望。
“呵呵,跟我来,它就放在前边那个密封的黑色箱子里。”
左思故作神秘的笑了笑,随后径直走进位于全自动流水线后方的一个小房间。
格蕾丝紧紧的跟在后面,很快便在这个空荡荡的房间里看到了一个摆放在桌子上的大号陶钢箱子。
这玩意是帝国制造各种型号动力甲和装甲的基础材料,自从被发明之后就一直被广泛运用到各个领域。
不过用来做箱子这还是第一次见到。
就在大修女盯着箱子有些出神的时候,左思突然毫无征兆转过身在前者耳边低于道:“去吧,打开它,我送给你的礼物就在里边。”
瞬间!
格蕾丝像是受到了刺激和惊吓一样,浑身上下瞬间起了一层鸡皮疙瘩,心脏也开始以平日三倍的速度狂跳。
不过好在她经历过许多的大场面因此并未失态,仅仅只是强作镇定的点了下头,然后精致走向桌子,伸出双手按下了箱子两边的开启按钮。
咔嚓!
伴随着清脆的声响,沉重的箱子瞬间被打开露出里边一个闪耀着黑红色光芒的宝石吊坠。
仅仅是看了一眼,格蕾丝的视线就被宝石所散发出来的光芒深深吸引,仿佛有某种不可思议的魔力一般。
透过宝石折射出来的幽光,她仿佛看到了另外一个自己,一个背后长着黑色羽翼、身披黑色盔甲、从头到脚被鲜血浸透的杀戮堕天使。
尤其是黑色盔甲的内侧,依稀可以看到密密麻麻的尖刺插进皮肤和肌肉不断撕扯。
而周围脚下则密密麻麻躺着大片被剥下皮肤、拔光牙齿,甚至是完全割掉眼皮、鼻子和嘴唇不断哀嚎的人类。
“你还在等什么?为何不戴上它呢?只要戴上它,你就能释放内心之中那个一直被压抑的真正自我。所有在你内心之中渴望的东西,我都可以给予最大限度的满足。”
左思站在对方身后发出魔鬼的低语,同时抬起冰冷的金属双手顺着脸颊轻轻划过,宛如刀子一样锋利的指甲深深嵌入皮肤和肌肉留下一道道醒目的血痕。
很显然,那并非是一个普通的项链或护身符,而是一个能够把人直接转化成为魔鬼的东西。
一旦出于自愿戴上,那么转化立刻就会开始。
呼——呼——呼——
一分钟……
两分钟……
五分钟……
十分钟……
尽管这位曾经给帝国立下过汗马功劳的大修女不断想要唤醒自己虔诚的信仰和对神皇的忠诚,可长期压抑的欲望最终还是像洪水般冲垮了理智的堤坝, 在心理暗示和心灵魔法的双重作用下,终于还是选择闭上眼睛把项链套在自己的脖子上。
转瞬之间,环形项链下边突然变长出密密麻麻带有倒勾的尖刺直接扎进脖子连带肩膀的皮肉深处。
当整个脖子一圈开始大量流出血珠的时候,项链中猛然间延伸出一条条满是尖刺的细长触手,如同狂风骤雨般开始抽打格蕾丝的身体。
“啊啊啊啊!!!!!哈哈哈哈!没错就是这样!痛苦!更多的痛苦!”
正常情况下,像这种八成会被亚空间的色孽邪神盯上。
但左思显然屏蔽了这里与外界的一切联系,同时还引入巴托地狱的力量来引导对方。
渐渐地,在格蕾丝皮开肉绽的额头上渐渐长出了一对弯曲的犄角、鲜血和碎裂的皮肤则在背后粘合在一起变成翅膀,并长出大片黑色的羽翼,身体表面干涸的黑色血液则凝固成为造型精美恐怖的盔甲,手中则拎着一把用自己几根肋骨塑造而成的长剑。
最终,她彻底变成了自己之前在项链中看到的那副倒影,一个可以从痛苦和施暴中获得快感的堕天使。
不过与普通在地狱中转生的魔鬼不同,她邪恶堕落的力量本质并非全部来自于巴托地狱,还有一部分源自于这个宇宙的亚空间。
左思希望通过这种方式来更好的了解亚空间,以及这个宇宙的运行规则。
伴随着从灵魂到肉体的彻底蜕变,半跪在地上格蕾丝终于彻底舍弃了人类的身份,猛地抬起头露出一双充斥着强烈欲望的血红色双眼。
此刻的她灵魂已经在欲望扭曲下变成了黑红色,缓缓张开黑色羽翼从地上站了起来,弯下腰优雅的鞠了一躬。
“感谢您赐予我新生,伟大的主人。现在我终于无需再压抑自己。真希望其他修女们也能像我一样解开束缚,不用在继续压抑自己的欲望。”
“这也正是我要交给你的任务。
去尽情帮助那些痛苦压抑的修女们释放她们的天性吧,不用害怕来自亚空间色孽的威胁。
因为现在的你就是亚空间的一份子。
你转化的修女数量越多,自己在亚空间投影所形成的力量就越强大。
到时候也许可以撕裂色虐的王座成为一名痛苦女王乃至女神也说不定呢。
最重要的是人类帝国早就已经没救了。
我们唯一能做的就是在它彻底倒下之前从腐烂的尸体上汲取到足够的养料来拯救人类、重塑文明。”
说着,左思伸出一根手指按在对方的额头上烙下属于自己的灵魂印记。
“明白,我会不断从内部不断帮助修女们觉醒,抛弃那些可笑的信仰和不切实际的忠诚,去拥抱真正属于我们的未来。”
格蕾丝抬起头伸出舌头舔了舔诱人的红唇。
身为一名大修女,她比任何人都知道在修女内部究竟有多少人因为长期压抑欲望而逐渐扭曲、变态,只能通过不断折磨虐待自己来获得少许的缓解。
左思盯着这位新生痛苦女王的眼睛叮嘱道:“小心点,别被逮到了。要知道摄政王兼原体的罗伯特·基里曼可不是个容易对付的角色,他身后那位沉寂了许久的皇帝也一样不是省油的灯。我可不希望看到从内部掏空帝国的计划最终演变成为一场战争。”
"Please rest assured, I will be very careful. Compared to this, I am very curious about how you plan to deal with the prisoners who are sent here from far away. Kill them directly and take their souls?" Grace asked with a slightly curious tone.
Zuo Si replied meaningfully: “No, of course not.
Because any form of killing will arouse the vigilance and disgust of the Terra Council.
Because under the emperor's teachings, the entire empire is permeated with a strong trend of human supremacy.
They might be able to accept their own people executing their own people, or even using criminals for various cruel experiments.
But it is hard to accept an outsider slaughtering their own compatriots on a large scale.
If I want to maintain the so-called alliance relationship, I need to show humanity and kindness.
So what I do is I sign a contract with these people and then I keep them alive and wait for them to die naturally.
In fact, sending living prisoners here is most likely a test by the Terra Council, and I will not be fooled by them.
After all, compared to a one-time harvest, I actually prefer sustainable development, even if it is harvesting souls.
Come on, let us go and see what crime these poor creatures who were sent here have committed."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Zuo Si pushed open the tightly closed door and walked out.
Grace instantly used her innate transformation magic, changing directly from a devil form to the appearance of a human nun. Even the black gauze skirt on her body was perfectly replicated.
However, only she herself knew that the nun who was loyal to the emperor and the empire in the past was dead, and now she was the first monster with an insatiable desire to bring pain and torture to herself and others at the same time.
As for the master who created her, Grace didn't know much. She could only vaguely feel that the other party controlled her soul in some way.
Whenever she wanted to draw power from the Warp and Baator, she had to pass through Zuo Si as a transit station.
Otherwise, you will be like a tree without roots, and once your reserves are used up, you will become extremely weak.
Not to mention using various abilities and spells, even maintaining life would become a huge problem.
What's more, the strict hierarchy among the devils was enough to make Grace, as a subordinate, lose the will to resist.
After all, she was just an experimental creation made by Zuo Si to explore the subspace, a tool to test the relationship between the real universe and the subspace.
If any problem arises, it can be erased at any time through soul branding.
It has to be said that after the Emperor himself sat on the Golden Throne and fell into silence, the Human Empire was in a state of decline, and internal problems were simply numerous.
A nun like Grace who has huge weaknesses and defects has hidden for so many years without being discovered. She even dared to be sent to a big devil like Zuo Si who is good at playing with emotions, human nature and desires. She simply doesn't know how to write the word death.
It's ok now.
With Grace's secret defection, the decisions of the empire's top leaders have now become transparent to Zuo Si. What he needs to do next is to continue infiltrating and completely uproot the corrupt human empire.
