Chapter 1149 Earth Unification War (Part 1)

Over the years, through the efforts of the ancients of the human empire, Inhuman and mutant genes have become part of the Titan warriors' genetic sequence.

The ancients believed that while using genetic breeding to incubate troops was fast, it consumed too many resources and wasted existing high-quality troops.

Therefore, Cheng Fengniu created twenty-two modification surgeries, which could directly transform an adult into a new Titan warrior while retaining their original power.

All mutants and Inhumans with relatively powerful abilities underwent the Titan Warrior modification surgery.

Through intermarriage, the genes of mutants and Inhumans gradually merged into the mainstream of the human empire's genetic map.

Throughout Earth's history, the human empire declared war on a magical tribe entrenched in Africa, with Emperor Thanos personally signing the extermination order.

These tribes, who possessed the wondrous power of "magic," should have been a great asset to the human empire.

However, during a secret invasion in which he concealed his identity, Emperor Thanos discovered that the entire African continent had long been a breeding ground for evil forces.

The Warp, which had always been feared by Emperor Thanos, finally revealed its dangers.

They worship the evil god "Khorne" and only know bloodshed and killing.

They worship the evil god "Jianqi" and engage in intrigue and witchcraft.

The worship of the evil god "Nurghul" has become a breeding ground for viruses and decay.

They worship the evil god "Slaanesh" and experience extreme pain and pleasure.

Even Thanos, the mad Titan who had witnessed the most evil race in the universe, was shocked by the blasphemous scene before him.

He understood that these so-called "warp gods" and the gradually demonizing warp believers were definitely not people he could win over or conquer.

Even the most ferocious gamma bloodline became the source of power for the Titan warriors.

But for them...

Emperor Thanos will only bring them destruction.

As he crushed these followers of evil gods, Emperor Thanos gradually came to understand everything.

The power of faith and magic is poisonous.

Although they are powerful, they will inevitably touch the warp, attracting the attention of evil gods and leading to unavoidable corruption.

After Thanos utterly destroyed all life on the African continent, he held a meeting with the Elders that lasted for several days.

During the meeting, Emperor Thanos, with the support of the Old Ones, Wind Bull and Wayne Shark, wrote "The Truth of the Empire".

It should be regarded as essential reading and a guiding principle for the entire human empire.

With Emperor Thanos himself as the best propagandist, the ideology of rational materialism is promoted, which is a kind of rational science and absolute exclusionary thought.

Imperial Truth combines science and secularism, resolutely opposes all religions and superstitions, and unites humanity under a shared destiny.

Emperor Thanos declared, "Unless the last boulder of the last church falls on the last priest, humanity will never be able to move freely and fulfill their manifest destiny as the most superior intelligent race to rule the galaxy."

Subsequently, he thoroughly cleansed every inch of the land under his rule.

And he will continue to do so on the road to unification and conquest that lies ahead.

Throughout Earth's history, human empires began negotiations with underwater civilizations and their staunch allies, the archipelago civilizations.

This group, which called themselves "Atlanteans" and "Amazons," highly praised Emperor Thanos's actions.

Thousands of years ago, they had already discerned the true nature of the so-called "subspace." They knew that only by isolating the subspace from humankind could humanity achieve true freedom.

Furthermore, after appreciating the Imperial Truth written by Emperor Thanos, he regarded it as the ultimate truth.

The figure of Emperor Thanos gradually grew taller in the eyes of the Atlanteans and Amazons, who found the goal they should strive for and the leader they should follow.

Because of the characteristics of the Atlanteans and Amazons, they cannot undergo Titan warrior modification surgery, but they can possess strength greater than that of ordinary Titan warriors.

So Emperor Thanos chose to forge another path, a completely different kind of modification surgery, specifically designed for the Atlanteans and Amazons.

However, due to the limited number of personnel, it ultimately could not become a regular combat unit.

Emperor Thanos then decided to make them an army under his personal command, dressed in golden armor similar to his own...

It was called the "Imperial Guard".

Throughout Earth's history, the Ultron Realm, which occupies the two major tectonic plates of North and South America, sent an invitation to peace talks to the then-powerful Emperor Thanos and the human empire.

The two sides held negotiations in the Diomede Islands in the Bering Strait.

This time, Emperor Thanos also saw the true face of the ruler of Ultron's realm...

A tall robot.

Or rather, a tall, intelligent mechanical being.

As the negotiations progressed, he also came to understand what the Ultron Realm was all about.

Ultron was originally an AI created by the Pan-Pacific Empire that occupied North and South America.

As time went on, AI became increasingly important in the Pan-Pacific Empire, and the people gradually began to yearn for the path of mechanical ascension.

So, more than a thousand years ago, the entire Pan-Pacific Empire collectively uploaded its consciousness, with O's creation as the mastermind, and thus a new race was born.

These "humans" with bionic mechanical bodies are called "immortals".

They have emotions and a sense of touch, only their bodies have been transformed into bionic machines.

What they didn't know was that from the moment they uploaded it, Olympus, as the master AI of the consciousness server, automatically became their absolute controller.

Ultron himself did not want to do this, but the upload was irreversible, so he could only accept the outcome and change the original Pan-Pacific Empire to "Ultron's Domain" to prevent his citizens from leaving Ultron's Domain and suffering harm from other forces.

He negotiated peace with the human empire because he did not want the immortals to be destroyed by the human empire.

He has always been a loyal artificial intelligence.

Ultron needs a commitment that, as the mastermind of artificial intelligence, he will pledge allegiance to the human empire as long as the immortals become an unbreakable part of the human empire.

Emperor Thanos himself was not interested in the so-called "immortals" and "artificial intelligence".

However, the three great masters among the Elders were very interested in them, and given that it would avoid a massive war with billions of "immortals," accepting them was clearly the best approach.

After the human empire joined the Ultron realm, Emperor Thanos raised his head and looked up at the vast expanse of stars.

The next step is...

The Great Expedition, commence!
