The restoration of the Han Dynasty began with the Horus Rebellion.

Chapter 59 I am willing to follow Lord Angron

Chapter 60 I am willing to follow Lord Angron

Sun Qian didn't know if Anglong's plan could solve the problems facing humanity, but it would certainly solve the problems of the human empire.

Because of this, the human empire was the first to be dealt with.

Starlight.

In simple terms, this is a kind of mechanical device built inside the Terra Himalayas. It was built by the Emperor after he unified Terra using all the manpower and resources of Terra. Its core function is actually very simple: to be a lighthouse in the warp, guiding humanity on warp voyages.

As the only relatively safe faster-than-light travel technology that humanity can master, subspace travel has always been a prerequisite for the establishment of intergalactic empires. Otherwise, with intergalactic distances measured in light-years, simply transmitting information to another galaxy might take more than a generation, let alone taxation, rule, and war.

"But this is 99"

Sun Qian wanted to say that this was absolutely impossible. Not to mention that taking the Star Torch would mean facing the legions guarding Terra, the Royal Guard, Macado, the Emperor... More importantly, the construction of the Star Torch almost hollowed out the entire Himalayas. How could such a behemoth be dismantled, transported, and restarted?

But he quickly realized that the question was pointless, since the other party must have made corresponding preparations since they dared to put forward such a bold idea.

The more crucial issue now is...

"Are you trying to set human civilization back to that era of conflict?!"

The Age of Strife refers to the period after the Iron Man Rebellion, when a sudden warp storm severed interstellar travel routes, cutting off communication between humanity's various colonies.

It was during this incredibly dark period that most human colonies experienced a regression in civilization, a technological stagnation, and were even brutally slaughtered and enslaved by aliens and chaos.

Until the Emperor's Great Expedition changed everything.

"This may bring darkness, but it is not a regression, nor is it the old night; rather, it is the eve of a new dawn for humanity!"

But when faced with Sun Qian's questioning, Anglong showed a calm attitude.

"Unlike the old Night Age, I will lead a fleet of Space Marine legions, carrying the Star Torch, a symbol of hope, through the Warp, to provide the human civilizations liberated from the Empire's enslavement with the resources, technology, and necessary military support they need for development!"

"My abilities will protect the Space Marines from the temptations and corruption of Chaos, and I think no Astartes would refuse this honor for this never-ending expedition."

"Countless human civilizations will be established without the oppression of imperial taxes and bureaucracy. They will develop their own forms of civilization, technological directions, political systems, and even religious beliefs and moral logic. We will silently protect their development and growth without interfering."

"In exchange, they only need to abide by the rules we set, and are not allowed to develop warp travel technology without permission—which they certainly cannot do; and they also need to hand over the protection and training of psionicists involved in warp travel to us."

"For human civilization, we are guardians, avengers, judges, and arrivals... but never rulers and oppressors. It may take thousands, even tens of thousands of years, perhaps even longer than our Primarchs' lifespans will not be enough to witness the end. However, I believe that one day humanity will surpass our ancestors of the Golden Age, developing or finding a way to travel across star systems without relying on the warp, thus making human civilization great again!"

"Anglong said in a passionate and firm voice, and stretched out his rough hand to Sun Qian from afar."

Only then did Sun Qian notice that all the World Eater warriors inside the boulder fragments had already evacuated, and now only he and Angron remained outside the Great Tyrant.

"Join me, Sun Qian. I am confident that I can ensure that those around me do not fall into chaos. You and Liu Bei are my insurance against losing my way or being misled. With you by my side, I can accomplish this task that may take thousands of years!"

Without Angron to hold the chains, the boulder beneath Sun Qian's feet seemed unstable, and the surrounding temperature had become as hot as hell.

Even so, Sun Qian did not choose to approach Anglong.

"It sounds more like you monopolized subspace technology and turned what was once a complete empire into countless gladiatorial arenas."

"A gladiatorial arena is better than a slaughterhouse under imperial rule. Do you really think that depriving humans of their free will and turning them into tools, livestock, or even fuel... is this what human civilization should become?"

Angron gave a disdainful snort.

"All empires eventually decay and fall into ruin; the ideal state of eternal prosperity simply does not exist. I know everyone hopes that my father—the so-called Emperor of Man—is the legendary Philosopher-King, and that the empire he created will continue to bring blessings to humanity. But unfortunately, the biggest difference between a Philosopher-King and a tyrant is that he must never make mistakes. Since he mishandled the issues of me and Horus, it proves that he can only be called a tyrant!"

His views on emperors were too extreme and too negative.

But Sun Qian also knew that Anglong did have the right and reason to make accusations.

and..

Although Sun Qian deeply admired the emperor and trusted his lofty ideals.

But it is undeniable that—

He agreed with many of Anglon's points.

The emperor was incredibly wise and excellent. Compared to mortals who made mistakes almost every day, he was able to make the best decisions over hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years.

The problem is that no matter how small the chance, he will still make a mistake.

The greater the ability, the bigger the mess one can make.

Because the emperor is so powerful, when he makes a mistake, almost no one but himself can make up for it, and any mistake could have consequences that the whole of humanity could not bear.

Especially now that the mistake has been made, and the Emperor is destined to remain on the Golden Throne for a long time in order to seal the cracks in the network.

And also...

Sun Qian could accept dying for his country in battle, but he found it hard to accept returning to Terra with a ship full of loyal brothers to await a purge.

"I cannot confirm the feasibility of this plan, but I cannot refuse the possibilities it presents. I am willing to follow Lord Angron and create a new world, free from the interference of Chaos, that belongs entirely to humanity."

'

Upon hearing Sun Qian's words, a relieved smile appeared on Anglong's sharply defined face.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you the details when I have time later."

"If only you were really Angron."

Angron's pupils contracted sharply, but it was too late for him to do anything.

"Fire at me."

boom!!!!!

As soon as Sun Qian finished speaking, a beam of light emitted from the bridge of the Great Tyrant enveloped them along with the entire boulder.
