57: Chapter 57 The Precursor of the Space Necromancer, the Enslavement of the Star God

The electronic prompt "Game Over" pulled the players out of the game.

"Brothers, when I launched the Exterminatus, I saw those people looking at the warships with hope in their eyes. It was truly agonizing."

"Sigh, Brother Gao, why did you have to make it so realistic? It's making me feel really bad."

On the other side, Yang Gao turned the "Shield of the Underworld" campaign into a CG animation and posted it online, hoping to gather more popularity to expand the recruitment scale. After all, the system's progress was a bit slow, making him jumpy with anxiety—he didn't want a golden giant knocking on his door to "bring warmth" one day.

"Emperor above! Don't send me to warhammer 40k; I'll definitely work hard to recruit soldiers for you!"

Meanwhile, the players looked at the promotional section for the anti-war game launch, where another warhammer 40k CG animation had appeared, filled with curiosity. When they clicked in and saw The Burner and Sanguinor, their surprise was beyond words.

At the beginning of the Big Bang, the Star Gods existed as energy entities. Initially, they were just energy clouds on stars absorbing stellar energy. Until the predecessor of the Necrons—the Necron—who were always at a disadvantage in war, came into contact with Mephet'ran the Deceiver. He promised to help the Necron win the war and then help them achieve immortality.

"Brothers, I feel like something's wrong. Giving so many benefits, there's definitely a catch, a conspiracy. Let's see how it unfolds."

Under such circumstances, the Necrons—though they shouldn't be called "Necrons" yet, but "Necron"—formed a pact with the Star Gods. The Necron forged Living Metal bodies for the Star Gods, and Aza'gorod the Nightbringer became the first god to possess a Living Metal body and walk freely in the physical universe.

However, this was the beginning of the Necron's nightmare. Upon obtaining his Living Metal body, the Nightbringer slaughtered the Necron indiscriminately. In desperation, Silent King Szarekh could only trade survival by promising to sacrifice even more offerings.

"I didn't expect the dignified Necron Overlord to have such a miserable time. How ironic."

"Brothers, this is a classic case of inviting a wolf into your house!"

"I have a question: how did they turn into Living Metal bodies? And how did they enslave the shards of the Star Gods?"

"And after all that, who is their enemy? Brother Gao is keeping secrets from me again."

"Don't know. Let's keep watching."

Later, to make these "slaves" serve them better, the Star Gods proposed that all Necron be converted into bodies made of Living Metal. Regarding this, different voices appeared within the Necron at the time.

"Szarekh, you cannot turn us into mindless puppets!"

"This is the path to immortality. We must discard our disease-ridden bodies to gain eternal life."

"Is this the immortality you crave?"

"Exactly."

Subsequently, all rebels were forcibly escorted to the Bio-transference furnaces by the army loyal to the Triarch. However, during this process, the Necron lost their souls, and the Civilians even lost their personalities and memories, becoming "living Necron Warriors"—from then on, the Necron became the "Necrons".

Together with the Star Gods, they fought against the Old Ones, sparking a War in Heaven that swept across the entire Milky Way, and countless planets were destroyed...
