Chapter 696: Luojia's stick shakes people's hearts
After listening to the projection's narration, Hogg felt very uncomfortable.
His original anger was swept away, and he didn't know whether he should regret or be sad. History was already determined, and he had played an important role in it.
If he had not established the Dog-Man Empire on the grassland, the Dog-Man Empire would not have perished in the future, which would have led to the emergence of the two evil gods Khorne and Jhinki.
The inexplicable war between the Necrontyr and the Old Ones was obviously influenced by Khorne. As for whether there was any influence from the Jax and Nurgle, Hogg was not sure. Even if the Deceiver, the source of all evil, played a big role in it, all of this was inextricably linked to him.
Letting go of Asuyan, Hogg sat down on the steps with a dejected look on his face. It was the wrong time and the wrong place, but he had given some people dreams that they shouldn't have.
It was like a vicious cycle. This was the case for the dog-men who marched from the green grasslands to the starry sky, for the elves who had been called the eldest sons of God under the saints since ancient times, and even for the humans who were supposed to rise.
An invisible hand is controlling their fate, and they are just like the characters in a picture book; everything is a tragedy.
As Hogg's anger dissipated, his size gradually shrank. Except for the God of War Cain, whose butt was still bleeding, the other four projections of the gods found that the flesh tentacles wrapped around them began to loosen.
However, Hogg's corruption has already shown in them. Even after regaining their freedom, they did not choose to escape. After all, they are a clone of the original, and they either work 996 or 007 every day. They cannot enjoy life like the original.
Looking at Hogg who was immersed in emo, Luo Jia thought it was time for him to take action. He immediately pulled out the Light of Enlightenment from Kane's butt and tiptoed behind his good brother.
"Wake up!"
"Oh!"
The spiked adamantine hammer was swung out instantly, and under the savage force of the Primarch it penetrated directly into Hogger's head. With the sound of bones breaking, a mass of white brain matter spurted out of Hogger's nose.
"What are you doing?"
"I want to wake you up. Hogg is definitely not the kind of person who is indecisive because of a small matter. He is a man among men, a male among males, and the Lord of Black Light, the first person in the Chain of Force.
Such a nagging brother is not worthy of being my eldest brother! Have you forgotten the oath you made when you taught me?
Who said that we should fight against heaven and earth to make mankind great again? Who said that we should establish a second empire and make those yellow-skinned people who look like nothing more than a monarch kneel down and call us daddy?
Who told Xiao Mo that humans would no longer starve to death, who told Curze that the world should not be so evil, who mocked Perturabo for being a twisted person without knowing it? Tell me!"
Luo Jia's scolding poured into Hogg's mind like a bolt of enlightenment, dispelling the haze that had been lingering over him ever since he came to the capital of the Eldar. He couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat and inhaled the brain matter back through his nostrils.
"Lorga!"
"Big brother!"
“Wow, wow, it’s me! It’s me, ahhhh, I dare not forget it for even a moment!”
After returning to their original form, Hogg and Lorga hugged each other and cried, their blood, tears, snot, and brain matter all mixed together. However, Lorga did not despise them, but patted Hogg's back with great satisfaction:
"That's right, the person I'm talking about is you, brother!"
"What has been done will be done again, what has been will be done again. You are the god in my heart. No matter what the result is, no matter the cause and effect, just do it!"
Seeing such brotherly love and respect, the other four gods' projections burst into tears and even forgot that they were beaten unconscious by Hogg just now. Only Kane was there wailing in a depressing way, his buttocks moving in and out, shouting for help.
"Shut up! Such a touching scene, and you, a cold-blooded person, didn't even cry. He just stabbed your butt with a hammer, but you also witnessed a great friendship!"
Moiraine Hage, the goddess of fate and wife of the god of war, denounced Kane's cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness, thinking that thanks to her amazing wisdom, she did not hang herself on a dead tree like you, but instead went to find an honest man like Val, otherwise she would be in trouble.
Perhaps it was because Luo Jia's enlightenment was still embedded in his head, Hogg could not control his emotions and tears flowed down his face. It was these sincere tears without any acting elements that were the most touching.
As the first round of applause sounded, 666 Eldar believers dressed in light gauze entered the temple. Their bodies covered with various torture instruments appeared vaguely sacred, and they sang beautiful hymns to praise the rare and precious family ties in the world.
The two unfortunate people who were awakened by the singing opened their eyes, and then they saw this sacred and harmonious scene in front of them, as if the previous blasphemous scenes were all illusions, and what they saw was real. "Did I fall asleep just now? But why did the God of War get into the statue, and there is such a big hole on its butt?"
Akama and Sarah looked at each other, their little heads full of confusion. They simply could not think of such profound questions with their brain capacity, but fools have good fortune. They soon gave up thinking and sang hymns with other believers.
When the number of believers reached a certain level, the elves began to perform their traditional arts, turning a ceremony into a luxurious and decadent banquet.
As the banquet progressed, the entire Spear of Adun suddenly became boiling with excitement. All the Eldar were enjoying themselves. Even Asuryan, who had been beaten up by Hogg before, stepped forward with a cool look on his face and invited Hogg to dance with him.
Hogg finally reacted and pushed Lorgar away, grabbed the warhammer on his head and pulled it off. Seeing that half of his brain had grown together with the warhammer, Hogg stuffed the brain back into his head.
"Get lost, you idiot. I have no interest in you. Since this is Shi Lan's choice, I respect him. But don't you think it's immoral to do this? Or, not to mention whether it will cost a lot of money and manpower, aren't you afraid of the decline of the Eldar Empire?"
After saying that, Hogg stretched out his dog paw and pointed at the fierce bestial scenes around him, especially at those small groups that had already caused deaths. It was not a matter of lust and evil, it could be called disgusting and torture for the sake of torture.
However, after hearing Hogg's doubts, the four spirit projections were shocked and said, "What's the problem? We are a large and powerful spirit race, and we have more resources than we can use up in this lifetime. We have already suffered all the sufferings in this lifetime during the War in Heaven, so we should enjoy it now."
Even the god of war Kane, whose butt was still hanging on the statue, looked as if it was a matter of course, just like eating a small bread on the side of the road.
Good words cannot persuade a damned ghost. Hogg once again confirmed one thing, that is, the entire Eldar Empire is rotten to the core from top to bottom.
From Hogg's and Lorgar's perspectives, as the brutalist abstract Eldar entered into bliss, subtle but real tides of the Warp began to ripple, absorbing these extreme emotions of depravity.
Because Slaanesh is also a god of the Eldar, these bean sprouts did not sense any danger, or perhaps even if they did, they did not care. Hogger and Lorgar instead became the few sober people in this crazy and blissful place.
At this point, Hogg could only smile in relief. He didn't care about this mess anymore. He signaled Lorga to use physical resurrection on the two followers, while he himself went to find the Sun King's clone whose style was broken:
"Since this is your custom, there is no need for me to interfere. I think Shi Lan should have told you the story of me and Mao Liman. I have only one purpose for coming here this time, and that is to capture a fugitive criminal.
Because this criminal is extremely vicious and has been wanted by the Space-Time Administration for a long time, and we have lost many brothers, so we sent me and my brothers here this time.
Do you know where Celaminethil is? He is a human duke who is at war with us. According to intelligence, the criminal has colluded with this despicable human alien and betrayed our Eldar camp. He also has three wives and four concubines. He is a real traitor. "
Thanks to the vests that Hogg had made up before, even though the two showed hostility, they did not become red-named monsters, but green-named interactive NPCs.
"I know! When the Eldar and humans signed the peace treaty, I ordered my men to sign it. The opponent who has no moral principles is now at the designated border.
There is a webway gate right next to the human duke's sphere of influence. The planet is called Prospero, and it seems to be a psychic research base of that crazy woman."
After getting the news, Hogg declined the banquet invitation from the projection clones who were thrown out by the Eldar gods to be used as cattle and horses, and decided to leave immediately. He must not let the yellow-skinned guy enjoy life at her place. Seeing this old wall lamp enjoying himself was more painful than killing him.
Although he has some personal flaws, Hogg is, after all, an ancient being who once did favors for the Eldar. In name, he has to be tolerated, otherwise how can he show the power of the Eldar Empire?
Asuryan immediately sent out a troop to lead the way. As for who would be the candidates, Asuryan glanced at Akama and Sarah who had caused them to be beaten up for no reason.
The original body is the original body, and the clone is the clone. The purpose of the projection is to serve the original body. These rebellious projections have thought about revenge, but with Hogg's existence, the latitude barrier is like a steel plate. No matter what, they can't contact the original body and can only continue to be good people.
Soon, after the God-King gave the order himself, the family to which Akama belonged was given the important mission of helping the Ancients, but secretly, the Amotoks were expelled from the Eldar home planet Aiur as a whole and became country savages.
The two unlucky guys who were still unaware of the situation were very excited. After all, this was the golden words of the gods, and it would bring honor to their family.
Seeing that Hogg was determined to leave, the divine projection did not try to persuade him to stay. However, when Hogg was about to leave, the Sun King asked Hogg in a very formal tone:
"Respected Ancient One, since you have transcended time, you must know about the future. How are we, the Eldar, in the future you live in?"
"..."
"Safe and prosperous!"
