Chapter 889: Resurrection of the Son of God (Part 1)
Gu Hang saw that the expedition team that arrived at Super Starfish had already come into contact with the Infinite Regiment.
The current situation seems to be good. Gu Jing and his group were treated with courtesy at Super Starfish.
This is actually not that simple.
If only the Great Sage, the Black Crusaders, the Inquisitor, the Living Saint, Gu Jing and others arrived at Super Star and were treated with courtesy, that would be as it should be.
They were all well-known and prestigious people in the human empire, representing powerful forces, and had no conflicts with the Infinite Corps, and even had experience in cooperation. Even among them, the youngest Gu Jing, although he had no particular reputation, his father's reputation was resounding throughout the stars, and during the Iron Armor War, Gu Hang had some favors for the Infinite Corps - they also had a company participating in the war, and when the Northern Front Corps collapsed, they were trapped on the surface of a planet and were rescued by the Alliance.
These are all relationships.
In this dark era of catastrophe, when it has become difficult for all places to communicate with the outside world, it is only natural to give a good reception to such a group of friends.
Even if this group of friends asked to meet and pay homage to the Son of God, it could be discussed.
Generally speaking, the Infinite Chapter rarely allows anyone other than Space Marines of Infinite Chapter blood to see the 'body' of the Son of God. Only at some special and important ceremonies, and under the strict protection of the Infinite Chapter, will a very small number of outsiders be allowed to see it.
But if it's a group of friends like this, it's not impossible to discuss it.
It would be easier to negotiate if they didn't bring a group of aliens with them.
In fact, Maevenell, Arielian and others who came to Super Starfish with them still caused a lot of trouble.
Having an affair with an alien is a serious crime!
When they saw the aliens, they didn't pick up their bolters and shoot them down, but walked side by side. If this matter is reported to the Anti-Xenophobia Order, they will not be able to get away with it!
If the people present had not been living saints, great sages, and great judges, the Infinite Legion might have attacked them the moment they met.
At the same time, we must also mention that among the many alien races that the Empire has encountered, the Eldar are the relatively "friendly" ones to the Empire.
The so-called "friendly" is of course not really friendly. Under the general policy of the Empire, any aliens should be eliminated. There is no problem with that. But if we really have to prioritize, the white-skinned Eldar are relatively low. In the history of the Empire, although there have been some wars and conflicts between the two sides, compared with other alien races, the number is pitifully small. In fact, there are many recorded confidential histories that the Eldar army has helped the human army many times for unknown purposes.
The number of times they have helped humans, and even the number of times they have come into conflict with humans, is about 50-50.
In addition, the Eldar are communicable, relatively "civilized", not into bloody things, accomplished in art, and close to humans in terms of aesthetics...
Even if we only look at the most superficial appearance, the Eldar are almost the most similar to humans among all the non-human races. Aside from the pointy ears, they are even considered handsome men and beautiful women in human aesthetics.
Of course, there are huge differences in the internal structure of the body. But if we talk about the body structure... the difference between Space Marines and ordinary humans is also very huge, so aren't they still considered human?
With the dual endorsement of the special nature of the Eldar and the special nature of the visiting guests, the Infinite Legion put aside some of their doubts and reluctantly listened to the words of the Great Sage Cawl, such as 'lost in the Warp for sixty years', 'survivors of the Battle of Cartier', and 'these Eldar once helped the Empire', and treated them as a group of guests.
But if that was all, they were willing to treat the Eldar as guests, which was already the limit. In any case, the Infinite Warriors would never allow the alien race to meet their father.
Unless, this group of aliens said, they had a way to save the Son of God.
If it was just the alien saying it, they would definitely not believe it. But if it was endorsed by a great sage, a living saint, or a great judge, it would be different.
The fact that this group of people were willing to make a guarantee to the Alien was enough to make the Infinite Warriors doubtful.
Making deals with aliens, accepting help from aliens, using alien technology... these are not considered "loyalty". Under normal circumstances, the Infinity Warriors would definitely not do this.
However, breaking these 'rules' in order to obtain the resurrection of the Son of God is another matter altogether.
It is true that Space Marines were created by the Emperor during the Great Crusade that founded the Imperium, and it is also true that they were built based on the Emperor himself.
But it's a bit one-sided.
The Emperor is too great. It is extremely difficult to inherit the Emperor's genetic template, even if it is infinitely degraded.
Therefore, the Emperor first created eighteen offspring. These eighteen offspring truly inherited part of his genetic template and were therefore called Sons of God.
Then, the Emperor used the templates of these eighteen Sons of God to create eighteen Space Marine Legions.
The Space Marines of these eighteen legions, therefore, regard the source of their genetic template as their 'father'.
'Father' is used in a broad sense, conceptually, but also practically and biologically.
After being modified by gene-seed, the genes of the Space Marines are very different from those of their mortal fathers; biologically speaking, it is true that the Son of God is their father.
The genetic father of the Infinite Legion is naturally Robert, the Son of God.
Ten thousand years ago, Robert, the Son of God, was seriously injured and dying in a battle by a powerful demon prince. In order to save his life, the Son of God was placed in a stasis field.
In the stasis field, time stood still, and the Son of God was completely frozen at the moment before his death.
As long as the stasis field stops working or the Son of God is taken out, death will follow.
The current era is an era where the Emperor ascends to heaven and all the Sons of God retire. As the only one among all the Sons of God whose whereabouts are clear, Robert is quite special.
During the period when Robert had just been trapped in the stasis field, both the Empire and humanity had not yet gotten used to the situation without the Emperor and the leadership of the Son of God. Over the course of a long period of time, all parties were trying desperately to revive the Son of God.
But there's nothing I can do.
All treatment methods are only theoretically possible and cannot be guaranteed. However, how can unreliable methods be used? Once the Son of God comes out of the stasis field, he will die in a few moments.
It has been dragging on and on until now.
The craze for saving the Son of God has long passed, and the empire has long been accustomed to the era of mortal rule. If another Son of God is placed on the heads of the high lords, will the high lords agree?
It's best to keep going like this.
But not for the Infinity Warriors.
If they could resurrect the Father of Genes, it would definitely make all the Infinite Warriors and countless blue descendants ecstatic!
Even if this is alien technology, as long as it can really resurrect the Son of God, it is acceptable.
Besides, it’s not completely alien technology, right?
The set of things called 'Armor of Destiny' that the Great Sage took out was examined by the technical sergeant and the director of the think tank. It was very exquisite and looked like it could indeed bring the Son of God back to life.
However, this matter is too important and the Infinite Warriors dare not make a decision easily.
They are repeatedly arguing the possibility of this matter.
If they can't be absolutely sure, the Infinite Warriors would rather continue like this.
At least my father can still sit in the stasis field, and everyone can come to pay homage and pay their respects to him during festivals.
If the resurrection failed, no blue-blooded descendant would be able to bear the grief of seeing their gene father die in front of them. Just thinking about that scene would make one feel grief-stricken.
Argumentation was, of course, necessary, and Kaul was also urging everyone to be patient.
But despite this, the elves became visibly anxious.
Maeve Neal met with the others several times, claiming she felt an increasingly imminent threat.
The Chaos enemies will not sit back and watch the Son of God resurrect. Their threat is getting closer and closer. It is best to seize the time and deal with things before the threat comes.
Unexpectedly, Evan Theriot, the chief think tank director of the Infinite Corps, actually supported the opinion.
He claimed that he saw this scene when he was performing psychic prophecy. He believed in his own prophecy, and believed that the technology of the Eldar and the Great Sage would eventually succeed in reviving their Gene Father.
However, the Infinite Chapter Master, Nero Claudius, was still hesitant and rejected the request.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust his think tank director, but this matter is still too serious.
He was even considering whether to contact and call on more Infinite Sub-Groups. He needed to seek more advice.
In essence, you are still too worried about gains and losses.
I want to revive my father, but I am more afraid of losing him.
…
Gu Hang, who used his son as a bridge and eyes to see the situation on the Super Starfish from the Storm God Kingdom, couldn't help but sigh.
Be it the elves or the director of the think tank, the threats they speak of are not false but real.
Gu Hang could already see that a powerful demon army was on its way to invade Super Starfish.
They came from the real universe, starting from the Scarlet Scar. The demon fleet skipped all places along the way, using the subspace waves of the Cataclysm to skip all places and head straight for the Super Starfish.
They even came from the Warp, accompanied by a huge army of demons sailing in the Warp.
Even if this force came to invade the alliance, it would be difficult for Gu Hang to deal with.
It is almost comparable to the largest demon invasion that the Great Wall defense line built by the Northern Army has ever faced in the hundred years since the Dark Side Expedition began.
But you have to know that the northern line of the alliance is supported by the core territory of the entire alliance. As long as the battle reaches a stalemate, strong troops will immediately come north from the alliance's homeland to support it. Even if they don't send troops to the western, southern, and eastern lines, they must first hold the northern defense line.
There are four full-strength regiments stationed there, and another ten regiments each with a company rotating on the northern front. There are 5,000 Space Marines alone, not to mention all the other troops.
Although the northern line does not directly expand the territory, it is a line of defense outside the Spider Web Universe. Once it is broken, it will rush straight into the core economic hinterland of the alliance. Gu Hang is not willing to bear this loss at all. If the northern line defense is lost, the Spider Web Universe will be baptized by war, and the loss will be even more unbearable than the complete annihilation of an entire front.
Compared with the Alliance's Northern Front Army, the Infinite Regiment is indeed well-known, a founding regiment with a history of 10,000 years, with countless elites. Super Starfish is also their home that they have managed for 10,000 years and is heavily guarded.
And unlike many other warbands, the Infinite Warband is very keen on managing its own planet, the entire Infinite Star Region, and even the Universe. The Infinite Warband seems to have inherited this part of the gene from their gene father who was very good at managing internal affairs in the imperial mythology. Their homeland is likely to be the most prosperous and peaceful star region in the empire before the catastrophe, except for the solar star region.
The huge political appeal they possessed could allow them to call for support at any time from the five hundred worlds of the Infinite Star Domain. Whether it was the defense forces of each world, the Star Army, or the various sub-groups in the five hundred worlds, they would respond to the call of the mother group and come to defend their common home and common father.
But despite having many advantages, facing such an impact, Gu Hang still has to worry about the Infinite Warriors.
However, there was not much he could do. It was difficult for him to deploy his forces there, and it was even more impossible for the Alliance's army to support the Infinite Warriors across the Scarlet Scar.
He could only send a message to his son, making it clear that the demon army was about to arrive.
After Gu Jing got the news, he immediately understood what his father meant. He had not made a clear statement before, but he immediately joined the camp of Kaul, the Eldar, and Theriot, persuading the Nero war captain and sharing the intelligence of the demon army, hoping that he would take it seriously.
However, Nero was still not persuaded.
But it was somewhat effective. Nero became alert and summoned reinforcements in advance. He gathered a lot of troops and arrived at Super Starfish to guard against the demon army.
Two weeks later, the demon army arrived and Super Starfish was plunged into war.
The scale of the war expanded rapidly, and the demon army's offensive included dozens of worlds outside the Super Starfish, aiming to destroy the Infinite Legion's war potential and cut off support from all over the Infinite Star Field.
The core of the war is still Super Starfish.
The brutal battle plunged the Infinite Warriors into a bitter struggle.
Against this backdrop, Call and Maeve Neil planned a daring action.
They wanted to take advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Temple of the Gods where Robert's body was placed and activate the resurrection device.
