Chapter 327, I am not destined to die!
Bojoa Gallardo has never died, and even some time ago, he was alive and well.
Of course, this so-called "not bad" does not mean that he has any quality of life, but that his life is not in any danger.
The story begins when Gu Hang tricked him into the subspace.
After this guy fell in, the golden light on his body did not weaken at all. Instead, it became even stronger because he entered the subspace.
Gu Hang judged that it was a blessing from the God Emperor.
Of course, this blessing was not given directly to Gallardo.
The Sun Lord, the de facto ruler of the Human Empire, Sohkem, is a true living saint who has been blessed by the God-Emperor and possesses divine power.
Moreover, he was far more powerful than any living saint in history. The grace he received from the Emperor of God was so great that it was enough to support him in carrying out the largest solar expedition in the human empire since the Great Crusade.
As one of the forty-six apostles of the Sun Lord, the Sun Lord shared a portion of his divine power with him in the form of a blessing.
It was precisely because of this power that Gallardo was able to remain calm in the face of the attacks of a group of demons on the Koroja 3.
At the same time, after he fell into the devil's realm, without the obstruction of the veil of reality, he could directly connect to the spiritual network of the God-Emperor, and this blessing power became even more majestic and powerful.
If a mortal went in, even a Space Marine, he would probably be corroded by the plague and turned into a festering corpse in a very short time. But the divine power bestowed by the Emperor protected him and kept him from being affected by the evil magic of the warp.
Of course, being in a space controlled by one of the four most powerful evil gods in the subspace, if you display this power unscrupulously, you will be conspicuous and will definitely be targeted.
Gallardo was also smart enough to realize this.
He consciously gathered his strength and hid it within his body, just to make sure he would not be corroded by the evil and corrupting magic.
This reduces the probability of being targeted and besieged by demons in the subspace.
At this point, he was probably able to protect himself in the realm of the loving father. As long as he didn't mess with a powerful demon, he could hold out for a long time.
When Gallardo was tricked into the father's territory, Gu Hang had left a beacon on him.
It had no other function, and was not discovered by Gallardo. Gu Hang used this beacon to silently observe his condition from time to time.
Gu Hang still had some respect for this guy. Although he was in a desperate situation, he never despaired and never gave up.
After protecting himself, Gallardo kept looking for a way to escape from the subspace and return to the real world.
But that's not easy.
At least in this year, he tried many ways, but never succeeded.
Gradually, Gu Hang felt much more relieved.
Although you won't die immediately, it's almost the same as being dead.
If he can persist for one year, can he persist for ten or fifty years?
However, things have changed recently.
The divine power in Gallardo suddenly began to fade rapidly.
He himself was certainly aware of this.
Before this, Gallardo, whose mentality was as steady as an old dog, was really anxious at this moment.
Before the gift of divine power completely disappeared, he made a final and determined attempt to escape from the warp.
He burned almost all of his divine power - if he didn't burn it, it would be gone soon anyway - trying to tear open a rift to return to the real world.
He failed without a doubt.
After exhausting his remaining divine power which could no longer be replenished, he fell into a coma, and was unable to successfully open the rift back to reality.
If that was the end of it, Gallardo would be dead.
But Gu Hang took action.
When he fell into a coma and lost consciousness, Governor Gu, who had been observing silently, opened a passage leading to his Kingdom of Storms and pulled Gallardo over.
This was just a casual move. In fact, Gu Hang had not yet figured out how to deal with this person.
If he had died immediately when he was first tricked into the Abyss Hell, there would be no doubt about it, as that was Gu Hang's original target.
Now, after a year, the situation has changed a lot, and Gu Hang has some other ideas.
The most important of these is the information implied by the divine attenuation on Galardo.
Gu Hang calculated the decay time and found that it roughly coincided with the time when the Sun Lord Investigation Team, who were supposed to arrive in Korojia, suddenly decided to go back home when they were halfway there.
Is something wrong with the Sun Lord?
In fact, this idea did not just come up now, nor is it just his idea.
When the investigation team suddenly couldn't explain it, it caused a lot of discussion.
I don't dare to talk much about it openly, but people say all kinds of things behind my back.
Some said that a major incident had occurred during the Solar Expedition, some said that the high lords of the empire could no longer tolerate the Solar Lord, and some said that the Solar Expedition was about to end...
Among these theories, the one that something happened to the Sun Lord Sohkem himself is the least mentioned.
This epic hero is too famous, and he is not too old now, only in his sixties or seventies. With life-extending surgery, ordinary dignitaries can live over 300 years old, let alone Sohkem.
He is a living saint!
Even if I thought about it this way, I wouldn't dare say it out loud.
But now, combined with what happened to Gallardo, Gu Hang felt more and more that it was not that something went wrong with the Sun Expedition, nor that there had been major changes in the imperial political arena, but that something had happened to the Sun Lord himself.
Sohkem, perhaps dead.
There is no doubt that this will cause a huge political storm throughout the universe.
The Solar Expedition, which many people hate, is likely to end here; the political structure of the entire empire will be reshuffled...
As for Gu Hang, those political turmoil did have an impact on him, but it was just a general trend, and with his current ability, he could not intervene. All he could consider was to find his own opportunities in the turmoil, and try not to be the one who suffered losses, but to strive to be the one who benefited.
Eh, that's not right.
To be honest, Gu Hang is not completely incapable of stirring up trouble in the imperial political arena.
Gallardo is a hole.
So, Gu Hang fished him out.
It was not put directly back into the real world, but placed in his Kingdom of Storm God.
Of course, before that, Gallardo had already fallen into a coma and lost consciousness.
Gu Hang didn't want him to see anything he shouldn't see.
After thinking it over again and again, he has decided to let the other party go.
But before that, there are still some operations to do.
How does Gallardo feel about Gu Hang now?
Probably a very capable planetary governor. After he used some of his usual tricks on him, he finally thought it through, chose to surrender, and started raising money. When Mingyan City was attacked, he fought alongside him and was the only "useful" one among so many people at that time.
In this case, if Gu Hang directs and acts out a scene in which he rescues him from the abyss, he should be able to gain the gratitude of this apostle of war.
But Gu Hang didn't intend to just do that.
Do you trust this person's character?
Unless Gu Hang is stupid.
The power of psychic energy surges, and the ability to tamper with thoughts begins to take effect in the unconscious Gallardo's brain.
In the past, Gu Hang would not have dared to do that.
Although the divine power in Galardo was only granted by the Sun Lord and not directly from the Emperor, its strength was still very high. It was almost impossible to bypass the protection of the divine power and tamper with Galardo's thoughts and memories.
But now, without the divine power, Gallardo is just an ordinary person, and Gu Hang can do whatever he wants in his mind.
Of course, to be on the safe side, Gu Hang did not make any big moves.
He did not tamper with the other party's memory, nor did he perform a major mind surgery like he did with Ness Luhmann. He just implanted a thought stamp very lightly, and the content was very simple:
Gu Hang is a good friend who cannot be betrayed.
That's all.
The reason for being so cautious is that if Gallardo is released back to the real world, a person like him who has been to the abyss of hell and returned will definitely be subject to strict scrutiny from all sides.
Gu Hang dared to perform major surgery on Ness Luhmann instead of roughly transforming his thinking because he was afraid of being investigated; as for Gallardo, who would definitely be subjected to stricter scrutiny, Gu Hang would not even dare to perform major surgery.
Although the probability of being detected is not high, once something goes wrong, it will be a big deal.
It's better to be more stable.
However, Gu Hang didn't actually have high expectations for this matter.
Whether Gallardo can pass the review depends not only on hard factual issues but also on a strong political background.
In the event of a huge change in the Solar Expedition, or even when something happened to the Sun Lord himself, whether he was really infected by the Abyss, whether there were any signs of corruption in him, whether he was still himself... these factors were just 'preconditions' and 'basic conditions'.
Whether or not anyone wants him to die in the Inquisition is the key at a higher level.
But Gu Hang couldn't help him with these things.
Can he pass the review smoothly, can he regain his status and position, can he regain power...
You fuel yourself.
Gu Hang just treated this as a casual move
If it succeeds, that’s the best. If not, forget it.
However, this move is not possible on Black Arrow Star.
It just so happened that he would have to make another trip to Koroja 3 soon.
The struggle between the Fats family and little Pedes seems to be coming to a clear conclusion.
The Fats family got the governor's seat of Koroja No. 3 as they wished, and a core member of the family named Ivan Fats will take this position.
It was not too surprising that they were able to obtain the position of Governor of Koroja. After all, the plague demon invasion on Koroja 3 was currently only capable of being solved by the Fachers family, which had a deep connection with the Dragon Eagle 3rd Legion.
Without their cooperation and the strength of 20 million Astra Militarum troops, no one could change the situation on Koroja III.
The new leader of the Pegasus star region was appointed by the Dragon Eagle star region government, and his name also happened to be Ivan.
Ivan Martinelli, formerly a high-ranking official of the Star Domain Government, belongs to the same political faction as Pedes.
The fact that Pei Desi took the blame and died still aroused sympathy in the Star Domain Government. He himself was born in a political faction of the Star Domain Government and had been rooted in the Tianma Star Region for many years. He was considered a core member. Pei Desi's death made people helpless, but it did not prevent them from pushing another person from their own faction to take this position.
It seems that the two companies are evenly matched.
The chaotic situation was largely ended, but Gu Hang didn't think it would truly calm down.
The confrontation between these two families will only change from the original melee to a clear-cut positional war.
He had already received an invitation to go to Koroja 3 to attend the inauguration ceremony of Ivan Fats, and then rush to Feiyi Star to attend the inauguration ceremony of Ivan Martinelli.
"Two Ivans, quite interesting."
…
Boggio Gallardo slowly opened his eyes.
In the darkness, he could vaguely see a faint yellow light coming from certain cracks.
After the initial confusion, he gradually came to his senses.
"I'm not dead?"
His heart was filled with ecstasy.
When his divine power declined, he realized that the Sun Lord was dead.
Unlike others, as Sohkem's confidant and someone who has received the blessing of divine power, he knows the details of the situation better than anyone else.
There is no other possibility for the divine power to decline so rapidly, except that Sohkem died.
This made him very frightened for a time.
But it was obvious that being in the abyss, he was powerless to do anything about the impact and turmoil caused by the death of the Sun Lord.
What's more, once the Sun Lord died, he would lose his divine power and die soon.
So, with his last bit of determination, he made one last attempt to burn himself out.
He himself did not hold out hope for it.
But I didn’t expect it to actually work!
Although he didn't know how it happened, he fainted and had no perception at all, but this did not prevent him from being happy.
It’s good that you’re not dead!
As long as you are not dead, there is still hope.
He took a deep breath, and the smell of corruption made him cough twice.
The body, having lost the protection of divine power, became very weak, and the environment here was obviously not very good.
He was not unfamiliar with this. This was the real world that was eroded by plague and evil magic.
He estimated that after tearing open the cracks that led him back to the real world, he should have landed in an area on Koroja that was invaded by plague demons.
His heart sank even more.
Now, if he encounters any plague demon, he will have no ability to resist!
He tried, and although his body was weak, he was still able to move.
He struggled to stand up.
At this moment, he seemed to be in some collapsed enclosed space.
He looked towards the only light source he could see, and found a metal baffle in front of him. He pushed it open with great effort, and the baffle made a heavy sound when it fell to the ground.
The noise attracted something he didn't want to see.
He wanted to run as soon as possible, but soon, dozens of plague zombies surrounded him from all directions.
Weak, without any power, and unarmed...Galardo was in dire straits.
He couldn't help but wonder, he had escaped from the abyss of hell, but was he going to die at the hands of some of the lowest level plague zombies?
At this moment, intensive gunfire rang out behind the plague zombies.
A beam of flashlight shone in front of him.
He vaguely heard someone shouting:
"Governor! He seems to be here!"
My mood, which had just sunk to the bottom, suddenly rose again!
I really wasn't destined to die!
