As soon as the mobilization order was issued, the Imperial Inquisition dispatched a large number of investigators to begin evaluating and briefly contacting the surrounding alien civilizations.
At the same time, the Imperial Fleet, which had been silent for a long time, reappeared in the public eye.
After all these years of communication, every civilization that has communicated with the Empire knows that it is a glorious, ancient and powerful empire.
But they never knew how powerful the empire was.
This time the war between the newly discovered civilization and the empire immediately caught their attention.
All civilizations want to know how powerful this ancient empire was.
The Empire's response was also quite quick, and a legion of about a thousand starships appeared on the battlefield on the front line.
You have to know that the current civilization is quite weak in terms of navy. There are only a handful of civilizations that can produce hundreds of ships. The empire's deployment of thousands of warships really shocked them.
However, this little-known civilization that was at war with the Empire also deployed a fleet of 600 starships to attack the Empire's escort navy.
Among them, there were even two cruisers from ancient civilizations that they salvaged and participated in the battle as flagships.
Although the Empire's fleet is large in number, its technology seems to be just so-so.
This caused many civilizations to begin to question the strength of the empire.
The fighting on the front lines was quite stalemate, and the Inquisition sent to various places also began to secretly observe the reactions of these civilizations.
Some civilizations were indifferent, some thought the empire was just an empty shell, and some asked if the empire needed assistance.
All kinds of monsters and demons have responded accordingly to the current situation of the empire.
The soldiers of the Inquisition recorded the thoughts of their leaders and the people of this civilization very accurately.
Six civilizations have already been placed on extermination orders, but the Empire is not prepared to take the lead in resisting. Instead, it has decided to use a cat-and-mouse game to win over the entire circum-Imperial star region to generate huge emotional energy.
Giving these civilizations the deepest despair when they are most arrogant, the emotional energy fluctuations of dozens of civilizations will definitely attract the attention of Tzeentch.
The Imperium needs to find the location of the Warp.
The Empire's front-line troops "hardly" repelled the fleet of the alien civilization called Angia.
Later, the "depleted" Imperial Fleet was attacked by "space pirates" in an asteroid belt on its way back to the Empire, and only a small part of the entire fleet returned to the Empire.
The empire then urgently blocked the news, but it still leaked out.
All these self-directed and self-acted acts are attracting these civilizations to have an unnecessary greed for the empire.
However, due to their lack of understanding of the empire or the fact that these civilizations were still forming alliances, they did not take any major actions against the empire.
The Empire's caravans are now occasionally plundered by unknown space pirates, and the Empire will be very angry and send fleets to eliminate the pirates.
It was fine at the beginning, but as time went on, these civilizations discovered that the empire's anti-bandit troops were always the same two.
This further increased these civilizations' covetousness for the empire.
In the solar system, Zheng Gan was enjoying Korvi's massage while looking at the information coming from various tribunals.
"Gray Wind, do you know how to fish?"
Huifeng in front of him looked at Zheng Gan's appearance of a tyrant and said nothing else, but just asked with some curiosity.
"You're actually capable of letting these ants ride on the Empire's face and attack it? Do you believe that when the Emperor wakes up, he'll slap you in the face and pin you to the golden toilet?"
Zheng Gan didn't care when listening to Huifeng's complaints. He opened his mouth and Eleanor beside him immediately handed him a grape filled with spiritual energy and put it into his mouth.
"I am doing this for the Empire. I believe the Emperor is wise and wise, and will understand my good intentions."
Huifeng rolled his eyes at Zheng Gan and was speechless.
"The emperor of the empire shouldn't have such a dirty heart."
"How can you be the emperor of an empire if you don't have a dirty heart?"
"The Emperor has no heart."
"So he got kicked in the ass by Horus."
......
The bickering between Zheng Gan and Huifeng made Eleanor and Korvi on the side laugh softly with their hands covering their mouths, but when Zheng Gan finished his last sentence, Zheng Gan clearly felt that the Star Torch trembled.
Zheng Gan, who hadn't figured out what was going on, suddenly felt his body losing control and his face gave the ground a deep kiss.
"Fuck, don't be so stingy! I worked so hard to find traces of the subspace, isn't it just for you!"
Zheng Gan, whose left cheek was pressed tightly against the ground, began to beg for mercy.
Finally, perhaps because he couldn't use his energy at will, or perhaps because he felt it was enough, Zheng Gan felt the huge force pressing on him disappear.
"You old man, you're really not afraid of becoming a ghost. Be more open-minded."
After complaining about the "small-minded" emperor, Zheng Gan straightened his expression.
"According to the Inquisition's intelligence, there are thirty-seven civilizations that will ultimately be ordered to exterminate. Prepare yourselves, and I'll hand it over to you when the time comes."
Hearing Zheng Gan asking him to take action, Huifeng waved his hand.
"I'm not interested in playing trash."
“Don’t you think this is cool?
Fighting against the fleets of thirty-seven civilizations alone, what a legendary feat! It's simply amazing!"
Zheng Gan tried to persuade Hui Feng patiently, but Hui Feng remained unmoved.
"Isn't that still just trash?"
"How about this, if you agree to take action, I'll make you the General of the Northern Expedition next time we fight in the Warp!"
"Your words might have appeased me when I first joined the Empire, but now...
Tsk! "
Zheng Gan, who felt that he was completely defeated, was also helpless against Huifeng.
"Then tell me what to do. Only if you can act as a deterrent can this matter be effective."
"Well, I want Korvi to give me a massage too."
After listening to Huifeng's words, Zheng Gan was also confused. What was going on?
"Slaanesh's spirit is like a raging flood. As the Grand Marshal of the Empire, you should set an example. How can you indulge in the pleasures of pleasure?"
"Please set an example yourself before you speak."
After glancing at Zheng Gan with disdain, Huifeng changed his sitting position.
"Slaanesh? Tell me how many armies does Slaanesh have? If you call him over here, I'll blow his head off!"
Gray Wind boasted with his hands on his hips, looking quite proud.
Looking at the majestic Huifeng, Zheng Gan also smiled.
The current empire, from top to bottom, whether it is the high-ranking officials such as Emperor Grey Wind or the ordinary people, is full of humanity.
This is what makes Zheng Gan most pleased. After all, after solving the problem of survival, only these emotions can make humans human.
This is the nature of humanity, and it is what the Emperor desires.
