Chapter 1296 Chaos and Ruthlessness Are the Norm

When Albert, the father of distortion, asked Orson the Cruel for help through a soul contract, Orson was inspecting his army.

Compared with the well-ordered and hierarchical devils in DND's nine hells, the chaotic forces in the Warhammer 40K universe are more like demons in the bottomless abyss. They follow certain unspoken rules in the chaos, so that they are orderly in the chaos.

Zhan Gang, the word, is the representative of this order in chaos.

Compared with the veteran princes and lords under the command of the evil gods, the fallen space warriors who later joined the forces of chaos obviously paid more attention to order and discipline. This is already a habit engraved on the soul, affecting a lifetime, and it is difficult to change.

And Orson the Cruel is the type of fallen space warrior who pays more attention to order. He has always paid great attention to maintaining the order of his own system, and tried his best to achieve the degree of reward and punishment.

But it is not easy to do this well.

To use a related classic saying: I don’t hesitate to betray everything in the past, just to pursue freedom and lawlessness. As a result, you still go online every day. What do you think I am in?

Depraved people often have big problems, such as lazybones, exploiters, arrogant people, greedy people, etc. Most of them also have shamelessness and lack of loyalty. It is not ordinary to want to manage a team composed of such people. difficult.

As a demon lord, a large part of Orson's energy was devoted to this kind of thing. And whenever there is a military operation, this problem is particularly prominent, and more investment is required.

This is why at this point in time, Orson is condolences to the army.

To put it nicely, this is called pre-war mobilization. To put it bluntly, these arrogant soldiers and veterans need money to do some work. Specifically, it requires both promises and visible benefits, as well as deterrence and beheading of a few escapers.

The painting style of the army of Chaos forces before the battle has always been like this. It is completely different from Kane's steel discipline, the army's strict and uniform, and thousands of thousands of uniforms.

There is another thing worth mentioning, that is, Orson has always been clear about the core purpose of his operation.

He knew Gladius had something big, but he didn't know exactly what it was.

Therefore, he needs to be a weasel.

However, his way of thinking as a squirrel is different from those who hide in the dark and observe, expecting to play tricks at critical moments.

Past experience told him that this kind of thinking is too taken for granted, and it probably won't work.

He believes that the key point is to control the situation. When the snipe and the clam compete, the fisherman will only benefit if they are all exhausted.

So, how to accurately judge the state of snipe and clam?

In Orson's view, the only reliable way is to compete with it himself.

The rest are unreliable.

Other people's standards may not be suitable for your own use.

What's more, who knows that the information circulating in the market is first-hand hearsay or rumors?

Those seemingly shrewd fools are just picking up the information they like from a pile of unreliable information, and then believing it to be true, even taking it as a standard answer.

He wouldn't do such stupid things to trick himself.

So the last time the Buzhoushan confronted the orc fleet, although he saw it rightly, and later got in touch with the Gaso family, he probably understood its level of strength. But Orson still felt that he didn't know his opponent well enough.

In his opinion, the other party is doing big business, which is extraordinary. He didn't even expect to see the opponent's trump card, but he had to treat it with extra caution.

He felt that if the combat power of the First Order was estimated by a general powerful battle group, it would probably suffer a big loss at a critical moment.

But if it is overestimated, it is not appropriate, and it is easy to be timid and miss opportunities.

Therefore, this time he used the Gaso orcs as cannon fodder, and sent Albert to sneak into Gradius secretly to make troubles against the human habitat. It was not a warm-up campaign before the war in the general sense, but had two purposes.

1. More ways to force out the opponent.

2. Take the opportunity to complete the deployment of your own military force.

In fact, this is all done from the perspective of being a good fisherman.

It was precisely because of this background that Albert's request for help made him feel very embarrassed.

Sitting alone on the Blood Skull Throne that imitated the Khorne Skull Throne, Orson tilted his body, with one hand resting on the bone armrest, resting his chin, carefully recalling the memories of being with Albert.

When he did this, he still made a choice:

give up!

He gave up on rescuing Albert, and activated the hidden treaty in the soul contract he signed at the beginning.

"I've warned you before that this situation is no small matter, so be extra careful. It seems that you are not paying attention!" He said to himself in his heart.

He didn't want to give up on Albert if he could.

Not because Albert is irreplaceable.

For a certain period of time, Albert was indeed of almost irreplaceable value to his team.

But after becoming a demon lord, especially after having established his own foundation in the bottomless dark cave, and proving that his lord's seat is very stable with one victory after another, the situation of people taking the initiative to come to the door began to happen.

Albert also knew about this, and found several capable subordinates through it.

He even knew that Albert also had the problem of being jealous of talents and suppressing people with great potential. Specifically, for example, let such people act as death experimenters, engage in high-risk research projects, and so on.

For this kind of thing, he has always chosen to remain silent.

Silence is sometimes dissatisfaction, and sometimes connivance.

And he has been in both states.

I was not very satisfied in the early days, because the bigger the cake, the more excellent efforts were needed. Albert's approach affected the efficiency and birth of new blood.

But later, it was indulgence. It's not because of getting used to it over time, or knowing that the Chaos Department does not lack talents who can be harvested repeatedly, but because it has better channels to recruit people.

There are two main channels.

1, the circle.

The demon lord, who is not big or small, is also a character in the chaotic system, just like the nobles in the Middle Ages. Although they are not earls and dukes, they are only at the level of landowners and squires, but nobles are nobles, and they are members of the ruler.

2. Inspiration.

Inspiration is generally a method used by gods to summon potential seedlings. Gods can be used, and demons can also be used. For example, the Lich King and Kel'Thuzad of World of Warcraft, the latter sensed the former's "evil radio waves", and then went bankrupt, and got a big ship thousands of miles away to the ice and snow of Northrend. Take refuge.

The demon lord may not be able to play with this trick, but Orson has already walked on the road of becoming a demon, and even stepped into the ranks of demons with one leg. Therefore, this ability was obtained.

If it is said that the worship of darkness and depraved faith is a big cake, then Orson, who has obtained this ability, has the power to take the cake from the super cake table.

Of course, most of the time, what he can get is just leftovers picked by others, or simply scum.

But this ability is still great. While the bosses are taking a nap, or eating a lot, have no desires, or get big benefits somewhere, and feel good about welfare, people like him can get some good resources.

He did not put these human resources in the inherent team. The inherent team is a big dye vat with various bad habits and deep-rooted disadvantages, which are difficult to correct. If newcomers throw it in, it will soon be polluted.

He chose to build another team.

The original set, because of his almost grassroots start and his immaturity at the time, along the way, has incorporated too many wrong results and the bitter fruit of expedient measures, which can be described as a lot of problems.

The new team was formed on the basis of becoming a demon lord, having a territory, a certain amount of wealth, experience accumulation and other favorable factors. Overall, it is stronger.

There are two sets of teams, the old and the new, and the new team is prepared for the completion of ascending the devil and becoming the devil prince.

The old team is a sacrifice.

This is a rule discovered by Orson. The road to becoming a demon in the chaos system is a process of liking the new and loathing the old.

In other words, metamorphosis is divided into individual and collective. As the core individual has completed sublimation, the collective must also keep up with this pace, so as not to become a burden, but to continue to complement each other.

As for the transformation itself, the blessing of the evil god is indispensable, which is also the main reason for the sacrifice. Only by gaining the favor of the evil gods, and with their help, will there be a greater probability of passing the hurdle of the life level, and from then on, entrusting the original gods in the subspace, in exchange for the huge benefit of being almost immortal.

From this perspective, this war can be said to be a big clearance of weapons and ammunition that is about to expire.

Even so, Albert's loss so early still made Orson feel a little painful. After all, Albert's command ability is not bad, especially commanding the army of aberration monsters, there is an additional bonus, and as an important general, he can be on the front line, which will also have a certain impact on his morale.

Just as he was thinking, a shadow soul quietly appeared in Orson's field of vision, with a gloomy blue light flickering on his body.

Orson snorted, and telepathically said: "Report if there is any situation."

The shadow soul is a servant created by Orson through cruel sorcery. It has always been his special messenger, the kind with unique characteristics.

"The Faceless Ones have arrived."

Faceless is the research and development team in the new team system that can replace Albert. There are hundreds of people, but no powerful person like Albert will be born in this team. Meaning, this is it.

In the future, in Orson's eyes, in terms of technical research under his own command, there is only a team, and there is no such thing as a leader or chief.

"Tell them, go get things done first. I'll see how they take over the Experimental Department, and then decide whether to interview them."

Watching the shadow soul leave in a flash, Orson knew in his heart that this was not an easy job, and his three subordinates all had a considerable degree of self-respect.

The experimental department was regarded by Albert as his own step-by-step, and there were even a group of loyalists who only knew about Albert but not about Orson.

Since similar things are common among Chaos forces, in the past, Orson just pretended not to see them for better cooperation.

Now it's not working.

Most of those who took Albert that day, even if they disobeyed the order, would arrange rescue as soon as possible.

Albert has a soul contract with them similar to his and Albert's, but the specific terms will only favor one side.

He could understand the difficulties of those people who loved Albert as much as himself, but he couldn't let him do what he wanted, which ruined his overall plan. Even if those people know little about the plan, they may leak information such as their own origin, military strength, and longboards.

Albert didn't know how to do it, because there was a contract.

Albert really won't, because he is in a semi-stupid state now.

Orson, who has the power to unilaterally terminate the soul contract, terminated the soul contract between the two, and at the same time activated a hidden and most powerful contract law, forgetting.

Regarding all kinds of souls, Kane is enough to be called an expert in the multiverse.

Even he is in awe of it, and it is conceivable that ordinary little gods are even more so. As for Orson, who is not even a god, but just uses the applied techniques that he doesn't know where he got it, his operation is naturally even more rough and superficial.

But there are rough ways too.

Like the one against Albert, the core concept of the technique is: a dream.

This contract technique has established a high-end psychological suggestion base for the subject from the very beginning, and until it is "truly awakened", otherwise all experiences are just a dream.

Dreams are always absurd, and after waking up, it is extremely difficult for a person to recall all the bridges of the dream. It is only a few particularly profound fragments, but it is only temporarily profound. If you don’t think about it repeatedly, you will soon forget.

And this contract technique uses this characteristic of dreams, or this mechanism of the brain, to achieve the purpose of forgetting.

Of course, the conditions for realizing this technique are also more stringent.

Not only must the recipient be willing to accept it with an open heart, but they must also not be mentally strong, or have a particularly strong will, or have achieved success in this area, such as mastering Occlumency.

That is to say, it was when they were both weak that Orson was able to use a special method to successfully perform the spell. Now, even if both parties cooperate, this contract cannot be concluded.

Orson had been very scheming back then, and his subordinates successfully tricked Albert.

It's not enough to cause Albert's consciousness to collapse. After all, before the contract was signed, Albert was already an adult with clear three views and a complete personality, and he had a foundation there.

It's just that he lost too much memory for a while, and still inevitably fell into a daze and confusion, so that the cracks in his mind were exposed, and the wizard of order took the opportunity to invade and fainted.

At this time, Kane's figure emerged from the nearby dark night, touched his chin, and thought: "This kind of person is actually a pawn who says he will give up. It seems that this time the opponent is not only decisive. You are a rich man. No wonder you can transform the Trouble Account so that the orcs can be used as gunmen, it is really a magic trick..."

Apparently, Kane misunderstood a bit. In fact, the magic reform of the No. 1 account was completely the result of the orcs represented by No. 1 Gaso, eager for revenge.

Lost even Waaagh's spirit, it can be said that it is the qualification to fight for the last fight at all costs, but it has nothing to do with Orson.
