The Triarch is the highest governing body of the Necrons.
The Triumvirate came into being when the Necromancers were still flesh and blood and were known as the Necrontyr.
The Triarchal Council is usually composed of the three most powerful dynasties of the Necrontyr.
The most exalted of all is the Silent King, also known as the Lord of the Undead.
The Silent King does not speak, but all his orders are conveyed by the two Dharma Emperors beside him.
Because the home planet of the Deathly Haunters was enveloped by the high-energy radiation of the star.
Causing their flesh and blood genes to be cursed.
It is for this reason that Necrontyr have a short lifespan.
Even with advanced technology, it is difficult to prolong their lifespan.
Even the most powerful French emperor is short-lived.
Because of their short life span, many French emperors have ascended the throne of the Silent King in history.
Until the War in Heaven broke out.
The Silent King - Szalak becomes the Silent King.
He reached a cooperative relationship with the Star God, transformed the Necrontyr into Space Undead, freed them from the curse of flesh and blood, gained the so-called immortality, and became the last Silent King.
However, all this comes at a price.
The Necrontyr lost his soul and flesh, becoming a cold data ghost encased in a metal body.
With the help of the C'tan, the War in Heaven ended with the extinction of the Ancients.
Then the Silent King - Szalak led his transformed people to smash the Star God who deceived them.
The Star God was broken into countless fragments, scattered across the galaxy, and imprisoned and enslaved by various space undead dynasties.
After everything was over, Szalak gave up fighting the Eldar for galactic hegemony, ordered his people to sleep, gave up the master control agreement to control the Necrons, and left the galaxy.
The rule of the Three Holy Council came to an end here.
The Master Control Protocol has been destroyed and the Necrons are free.
After tens of millions of years of slumber, the Undead's awe of the Triarchal Council has long since disappeared.
Even now, the Silent King - Szalak has returned to the galaxy.
Many awakened dynasties were no longer willing to obey the rule of the Three Holy Council.
Powerful mages such as the Storm King all want to become the supreme ruler of the Undead.
The power struggles and chaos between dynasties have made the current Three Holy Council a mere formality.
In other words, the Saken Dynasty could not find a reasonable means to sanction the Sotai Dynasty.
Moreover, they did not know whether the Sotai Dynasty had really colluded with humans.
"The human expedition fleet is unstoppable. They have ruthlessly destroyed the Orc Empire in the same star region. Now, they are pointing the spearhead of war at us."
The senior general of the Saken Dynasty looked at the rolling image in front of him and said, "If the Sotai Dynasty and humans unite, we will never be able to win this war."
King Sarken sat on his throne, silent.
Metal fingers tapped on the armrests of the throne, making a crisp sound.
The data center inside the metal skull was spinning at high speed, even slightly hot.
Quickly analyze the current battlefield situation.
He wanted to find a way to protect the dynasty from the crazy attacks of humans.
"Where is their fleet now?" asked another senior Undead general.
"They have already passed our outer defenses. The nearest fleet only needs 20 days to sail to the Crown World. If the ether currents formed by the subspace are in their favor, this time will be shortened even more."
The senior grave technician extended his metal finger and clicked on the scrolling image several times in succession.
Play the images sent back from those outposts.
In the picture they can clearly see humans in power armor, fighting in the crazy waves of undead, harvesting the dynasty's soldiers like mowing grass.
"These Space Marines have been enhanced, and their combat power is even stronger than before." The crypt technician took out the analysis data and presented it to everyone, "Ordinary soldiers are no longer their opponents."
"It was with these warriors that they easily blew up our outpost and destroyed the Rebirth Protocol module. Perhaps only the King's Guard can fight them one-on-one."
The eyes of many high-ranking undead were solemn, all staring at the rolling images, with a slight sadness in their hearts.
Humans, who have always been regarded by them as a barbaric race, now pose such a terrible threat to them.
When transforming into an undead, the higher the status of the necrophile, the more complex the metal body he or she will obtain, and the more memory and consciousness he or she will retain.
And there is no difference between low-level Necrontyr and robots.
Without emotions or wisdom, one can only follow orders.
The French king's melee guards are of high status and retain most of their sanity and memory.
The materials and computing modules used in their bodies are top-notch, which makes their combat power far stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. It can even be said that they are on a completely different level.
The number of members who can protect the guard is extremely small.
But there are so many Space Marines.
There has been a reversal in close combat power between humans and undead.
They are already weaker than humans.
This is a very deadly thing.
Humans can still reproduce, but the number of undeads is decreasing as they die.
As one gains, the other loses. Without the technological advantage, it is only a matter of time before humans exterminate the space undead.
"Perhaps we should seek help from other dynasties. Humanity's ambitions are by no means limited to the Saken Dynasty." A senior general said that when the Saken Dynasty is destroyed, they will inevitably turn their war flames to other dynasties.
"Those guys from the Sotai Dynasty messed up their brains while sleeping. How dare they form an alliance with humans?"
“They’re going to pay for this.”
Many high-ranking officials of the dynasty who participated in the meeting cursed the Sotai Dynasty in indignation.
But King Sakken stopped them again and made the final decision.
In view of the menacing human expeditionary fleet, he decided to ask for help from a powerful dynasty.
That is the Norwalk Dynasty located on the edge of the Extreme Star Region.
The Norwalk Dynasty is currently ruled by the Undead Overlord, the Crimson King.
This dynasty was extremely powerful. It participated in the war against the Star God, shattered a Star God named Crimson God, and enslaved the fragments of the Star God.
The Scarlet King is equally ambitious and wants to compete for the position of supreme ruler of the Undead.
In recent years, we have been waging wars of conquest against other countries.
Several powerful dynasties have already submitted to the Crimson King.
Because the territories of both sides have not yet bordered each other, the Saken Dynasty has not yet been attacked.
The cost of seeking help is high.
The Saken Dynasty is likely to become a vassal.
But now there is no choice.
If you don't want to become a vassal, you will be completely destroyed by humans.
... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Macragge's Glory.
As Guilliman's flagship, this huge battleship naturally followed the fleet into the battlefield.
A still usable Colossus of Sky Punishment followed closely behind the main fleet where Guilliman was, continuously jumping and approaching the crown world of the Sarkon Dynasty.
But today, the Macragge's Glory welcomed a special guest.
King Sotai from the Sotai Dynasty personally visited the flagship of the human regent to discuss the possibility of an alliance between the two forces.
The human offensive against the Sakken Dynasty also made King Sotai feel a little uneasy.
The Saken Dynasty was the mortal enemy of the Sotai Dynasty.
King Sakken has been trying to make the Sotai Dynasty surrender for years.
The two sides have fought several consecutive wars.
Now, the Sakken Dynasty was attacked by humans, and the Sotai Dynasty was caught in a dilemma.
It is to abide by the old agreement and assist the Sakken Dynasty in repelling humans.
Or turn a blind eye and watch humans destroy the Sarken Dynasty.
If you choose the former, you will feel awkward like trying to please someone but getting rejected, or having to help someone even when they are beaten.
If they defeat the humans, they might be annexed by the Sakken Dynasty.
Choosing the latter, many high-ranking undead leaders of the Sotai Dynasty were also worried that after humans destroyed the Sakken Dynasty, they would turn around and continue to attack them.
Forced to do so.
King Sotai can only try to see if he can communicate with humans.
Unexpectedly, the other party responded quickly.
Guilliman, the Lord of Ultramar, readily invited King Sotai to go to the Macragge's Glory to discuss the affairs of the two races.
The meeting place was chosen in a neutral galaxy.
After confirming the meeting, Guilliman allowed the fleet to wait for several days.
Waiting for the envoys from the Sotai Dynasty.
... ... ... ... ...
Accompanied by bursts of flashes.
A dozen Undead ships appeared in front of the mighty Imperial expeditionary fleet.
King Sotai was sitting on his flagship, personally negotiating with Guilliman.
A Scythe-class reaper cruiser.
The front end is similar to a crescent moon, and the back is a long platform with a small pyramid structure as the main body.
The strength of the Necron dynasties also varies.
The powerful dynasty possesses powerful ships such as Tomb-class motherships and Sky Punishment-class strike ships.
The weaker dynasties generally have ships such as the Scythe-class and Elegy-class.
Many ships of the Imperial Fleet were suspended in the void.
The scale was so huge that even King Sotai was a little frightened.
With so many war engines, it is enough to easily destroy the Sotai Dynasty.
Especially when he saw the huge Colossus of Sky Punishment, which had a diameter of more than a thousand kilometers, a rough and barbaric appearance, and was covered with huge cannons, King Sotai felt even more nervous.
The logical operation module inside the skull showed a rare hint of fear.
Human beings actually possess such terrifying military power.
I am afraid that even if the Sotai Dynasty and the Saken Dynasty join forces, they may not be able to resist the Empire's offensive.
The high-ranking officials of the Sotai Dynasty who came with the King of France also had very solemn expressions.
The power of human beings is more terrifying than they imagined.
With such military strength, no one can be their opponent except those powerful dynasties.
On the deck of Macragge's Glory, Guilliman was already waiting.
When he proposed to meet with the King of Dharma of the Sotai Dynasty.
Many senior officials of the expedition fleet were arguing with each other.
The radicals believe that no compromise can be made with any aliens, and that the Empire's fleet must be used to destroy those damned beasts with ease.
We must smash all the alien buildings and civilizations and make them disappear completely in the galaxy.
Another faction believes that humanity has reached the most dangerous time, and the right thing to do is to quell the chaos caused by aliens and demons as quickly as possible.
Any means used in this process are forgivable.
As long as the expedition progresses one minute faster, the human empire can escape from this abyss of suffering one minute faster.
Countless lives will be saved as a result.
Even if we cooperate with the aliens now, we can still defeat them after we recover.
In that way, you can get the greatest results at the lowest cost, so why not do it
Thanks to the two battles to recapture Ultramar and destroy the Orc Empire in the Charadon sector.
Especially when he killed the orc warlord, his godly figure made his prestige soar.
Everyone has already assumed that Guilliman is the savior of humanity, the hope of the Empire, and the future of mankind.
With his prestige, Guilliman calmed the struggle between the two factions and facilitated a meeting between him and King Sotai.
All aliens are damned.
The problem is that right now, the plight of the human empire is too bad.
There is no need to push neutral forces that are not yet enemies to the opposite side.
The Zerg's vanguard fleet is approaching the Vitria system.
The longer he spent on the Undead, the more pressure Calgar felt.
Why skimp on a tiny commitment when you can reduce resistance
A promise without a basis in force is like toilet paper that can be thrown away at any time.
The welcoming ceremony was grand, with Guilliman dressed in the most majestic blue armor.
The breastplate is decorated with thunder and lightning and a spread-wing eagle, representing the Emperor.
Every Primaris Space Marine could feel the powerful authority radiating from Guilliman.
Beside Guilliman were Fikris and the Honor Guard.
There is also the mechanical body of Casting General Krona, which is made of gold and steel.
Behind Guilliman was a formation of more than 500 heroic Primaris Space Marines.
Each of them is dressed in heavy Terminator armor, and their tall steel bodies exude a terrifying and oppressive aura that makes mortals tremble.
This gesture demonstrates the powerful military strength of the human expeditionary fleet.
These powerful Primaris Space Marines are indestructible, and any force that attempts to threaten humanity will be completely destroyed under their iron fist.
Necron fighters landed on the deck.
It slowly opens with a decompression hiss.
More than thirty members of the French King's Guard, whose bodies were mostly withered white and decorated with gold-rimmed patterns, stepped out.
In their hands they held phase swords that glowed green, and their green eyes exuded a cold and mechanical aura.
There is no trace of life on these guys.
They have been utterly cursed, echoes of an ancient civilization that wandered among the stars.
The King of Magic, holding a scepter, appeared on the stage surrounded by many high-ranking undead.
His body was taller and more delicate, and the gold patterns inlaid on it were more complex than those of the guards.
Fikris and the others resisted the urge to draw their swords, stood beside the Primarch, and watched the undead enter Macragge's Glory.
Even if they drew their swords, they could only disrupt the Primarch's plans.
There is no way to completely kill the Dharma King Sotai.
The King of Pope and high-ranking Undeads all have rebirth agreements on them.
As long as the Bastion Nest is not destroyed, they can be resurrected in the furnace in the pyramid with the help of the Rebirth Protocol.
Simply killing is meaningless.
King Sotai, whose entire body was made of metal and who was holding a scepter with double patterns of gold and silver, walked up to Guilliman.
"It is a great honor. I presume you are the Supreme Ruler of the Imperium of Man, Guilliman?"
"The supreme ruler of the Empire is only the Emperor. I am only acting as his emissary to exercise these powers." Guilliman replied, "Welcome to you."
Guilliman controlled his attitude very well, making King Sotai feel respected.
"I come for peace," said King Sotai, "to seek peace for mankind."
Fikris looked at the Undead Overlord, and the other party's words made him want to sneer out loud.
Necromancers and humans say peace!!
These guys always have their eyes on the sky.
Many times, they do not take humans seriously at all, are arrogant and think they are the masters of the galaxy.
Calling humans monkeys in a contemptuous manner.
Now, he actually surrendered in front of Lord Guilliman and uttered the word "peace".
If this gets out, I'm afraid those idiots in Terra will be shocked.
Even the Necrons they feared had to bow before their Primarch.
Of course, there is also the possibility of anger and condemnation from the Inquisition and the Ecclesiarchy.
In their view, Guilliman's blatant reception of the leader of the alien civilization was undoubtedly a serious provocation to the Emperor's majesty.
Such heretical behavior should be punished by being burned at the stake.
Fikris naturally did not agree with those ridiculous opponents.
Lord Guilliman did these things to protect the human world.
The ultimate goal is to ensure the survival of human civilization in the dark universe so that it will not be completely swallowed up by the power of chaos.
Loyalty to the Emperor of Mankind should not take precedence over the survival of human civilization.
"We all hope for peace." Guilliman smiled, "But sometimes we have to resort to force. Only in this way can we protect our lives."
"That's true." King Sotai said, "I want to know why you insist on attacking the Sakken Dynasty?"
"They invaded us, and this was simply revenge," Guilliman said.
"Really? You will only control the war to the level of revenge." King Sotai asked meaningfully.
"So far, it is still like this. Of course, we will not attack our allies." Guilliman responded with a smile, "You want to ask whether the human empire will attack the Sotai Dynasty. I can't do anything about it. The answer to this question depends on you. As long as you don't harm the interests of mankind, I will never rashly sacrifice the lives of those soldiers."
"We never attacked you," said King Sotai.
"It's just that there isn't anything right now. No one knows what will happen in the future!"
"I can make that promise."
"Mere verbal assurances are of no consequence, and you and I both know that," said Guilliman.
"So what do you want?" King Sotai looked at the human in front of him and asked.
"Only when we have common interests can we be on the same front. I need the Sotai Dynasty to provide me with information about other dynasties. Your race is too dispersed, and many of them are hostile to humans. I must prioritize the interests of humans. Only in this way can we have the foundation for our cooperation."
'You want me to betray my own kind?'
"This is the foundation of peace. Only when we are on the same side can we be called allies, right? Besides, I am only fighting back against those forces that harm humanity."
"Then what can I get?" asked King Sotai.
Guilliman looked at King Sotai and said, "I will promise that as long as the Sotai Dynasty, which has become an ally, does not infringe on the interests of mankind, the Empire will never attack the Sotai Dynasty."
"I am willing to conclude a peace agreement, but it is difficult for me to betray other dynasties," said King Sotai.
"It's not betrayal, but to protect the peace between our two races. If you continue to attack humans, what peace can we talk about?"
"Those forces cannot represent the Sotai Dynasty," said King Sotai.
"In that case, what's the point of a peace agreement? You can't represent your race, and you're not willing to make sacrifices. Then other imperial forces will attack and say that it was only me who signed the agreement with you, not them, so they are not bound by it."
"In this case, does the peace agreement still have meaning? You must make a choice, to stick to the end for those overlords who want to annex the Sotai Dynasty, or to choose to compromise."
Guilliman looked at King Sotai and spoke.
