From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man
Chapter 488 Endless Loneliness "Son of the Emperor"
!
The smoke did not need to dissipate completely for the Emperor's Children and the Sons of Man to clearly see the other "giant" who was blocking the hateful attack of the Ascended Demon Fulgrim.
Standing in front of the Ascended Demon Fulgrim was a giant clad in finely crafted armor. His appearance was like the descent of a god, making it impossible to look away.
The armor, carefully forged from mithril, gleams with a cold glow and seems to be able to withstand all impacts.
Each scale of the armor appears to be extremely delicate, outlining his majestic and agile physique.
His scimitar was like a flowing golden flame. The flames burning on the blade complemented the surrounding firelight, exuding a breathtaking pressure.
The scimitar's blade trembled slightly, as if ready to cut through all obstacles ahead at any time.
The long silver hair fluttered in the firelight, like moonlight falling on a clear lake, soft and beautiful, yet with an irresistible power.
The fiery red cloak flutters in the wind like wings in flames, adding a sense of otherworldly mystery.
The most important thing is that that handsome face exudes an indescribable majesty and holiness, and his eyes are deep, as if they can see through all hypocrisy and depravity.
In this chaotic battlefield, his existence is like the last hope, gathering countless loyalty and faith.
His every move seemed to shake the whole world and make the air around him tremble.
Those Sons of the Emperor, whose bodies had long been severely deformed by the corruption of Chaos, suddenly fell into a deep stupor.
There were complex emotions flashing in their eyes——
Surprise, fear, awe, and an overwhelming sense of guilt.
Their hearts seemed to be deeply shaken by some invisible force, and even some of the emperor's sons gradually revealed unconscious reverence and obedience in their eyes.
Some of the Emperor's sons, whose facial features could still be recognized as human, even knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully due to uncontrollable emotional impulse.
Although their movements were "sluggish", their eyes were full of high respect for this "giant".
These sons of the Emperor seemed to see the father who had long been blurred in the depths of their memories, but now, he was standing before them, full of glory and majesty.
Deep in their hearts, the depravity and chaos represented by the Ascended Demon Fulgrim can no longer touch their once deeply hidden loyalty and respect.
On the contrary, this "giant" who still maintains his noble and pure existence is the goal that their hearts most desire to look up to.
This is the original Son of Man who possesses a "complete soul" in the main universe, the true heir of the Emperor.
Fulgrim.
His appearance marked the "coming" of hope and light, and with endless faith and divine light, he completely broke through the haze of chaos.
And Fulgrim was like a bright star, descending into the endless darkness, shining with unparalleled light, bringing a spiritual shock to the fallen Emperor's children.
At this moment, the situation on the battlefield was completely changed.
"Don't take it out on the kids."
Fulgrim spat out this sentence in great displeasure, and the flaming scimitar in his hand drew a dazzling arc of fire in the air, directly pushing away the Ascended Demon Fulgrim who was trying to approach.
He frowned, a trace of disgust and deep disappointment flashed in his eyes, and continued:
"Do you think that by killing Rilano and devouring and torturing the innocent lives of this city, you can regain your ridiculous dignity? You are nothing but a depraved monster."
"."
As Fulgrim's words fell, the Ascended Demon Fulgrim (the demon Fulgrim) suddenly twisted its huge snake-like body and slowly retreated.
It did not respond. An indescribable emotion flickered in its empty eyes. Its expression was ferocious, filled with confusion and anger, as if it was questioning the path it had taken in its life.
The demon Fulgrim was not surprised at when the "Fulgrim" in front of him appeared, nor was he shocked by Fulgrim's still perfect image as if it had never changed.
On the contrary, the demon Fugen's confusion stems more from his extreme anxiety about his own heart.
It has experienced countless blasphemies, betrayals, and corruptions, but in the process, it has never lost one thing——
That is the desire for ultimate pleasure.
Furthermore, it knows that cloning technology is not new.
The daemon Fulgrim had cloned his brother, Ferrus Manus, the Primarch of the Xth Legion Iron Hands, whom he had beheaded countless times.
But every time Ferrus Manus was "reborn", a fierce battle would break out with it, causing it to kill its brothers countless times again, while becoming more and more depraved and crazy.
It also knew that its legion pharmacist, Fabius Byer, had cloned a "loyal version of himself" and almost influenced most of the ten thousand year old veterans.
The fundamental reason why the demon Fulgrim fell into a brief daze was not just that Fulgrim's "great and glorious" appearance evoked his memories of Ferrus Manus, nor was it that he was impressed by Fulgrim's powerful combat power that was enough to withstand his angry attack.
What is even more profound is that at the moment when it clashed with Fulgrim, the demon Fulgrim's childhood memories suddenly emerged in his mind.
That was a completely different world from his.
A childhood accompanied by parents, a life of fighting and helping each other among brothers;
A complete and warm family life, full of innocence, care and carefree joy.
These memories came flooding back like a tide, shocking the demon Fulgrim immensely.
As the embodiment of chaos, it has long forgotten the human feelings that once belonged to it, especially those emotional ties that it had long since abandoned without even looking back.
However, Fulgrim in front of him had everything.
Have a warm childhood, have the company of family members, have the support and competition of brothers.
The other party did not become a tool of chaos, lonely and twisted; the other party still stands on the ideals he once had, carrying the expectations of countless people.
All this made the demon Fugen feel unprecedented jealousy and confusion.
Why can "he" have all this?
Why does "Fulgrim" in different universes receive such completely different treatments?
It could not understand or accept this untraceable gap, and it felt extremely angry and painful.
Its eyes were filled with deep jealousy, which was a strong desire for an ordinary and warm life, and unwillingness to accept its own endless degeneration.
"Everything about you is just a hypocritical mask!! Fulgrim!!"
The demon Fulgrim erupted again, his extreme anger causing his voice to become hoarse and distorted, almost like a roar of exhaustion.
Its eyes were blood red, and all the strength in its body almost burst out at this moment, but its heart was still empty and broken.
"You still want to go along with these humans, but I, the real Fulgrim, have already transcended all constraints and stood on a higher ground!"
The demon Fulgrim's voice was filled with tearing anger, as if his inner reason had completely collapsed at this moment, and he seemed to be complaining about the shackles in his heart that could not be undone:
"The father in your mind, the false emperor, has long since died of corruption, leaving behind only an empty shell and an illusion! Everything is fake!"
Every word seemed to be an outburst of resentment, making the air around seem oppressive.
"That fake emperor created a false avatar to let you experience the joy and warmth of childhood, so that he can take advantage of you and your brothers and continue to use you as his tools!"
The demon Fulgrim's voice was low and sharp, with a hint of madness flashing in his eyes. Every word he said was filled with deep contempt and resentment for the past.
This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!
It seemed to be trying its best to refute its own past choices, deny everything that had happened, and try to make Fulgrim feel the same emptiness and depravity.
"The country that humans dream of never existed!" The demon Fulgrim suddenly raised his head and howled to the sky, his voice full of ridicule and madness:
"It is wishful thinking to want to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the false emperor! What are you still holding on to? You are still chasing those empty ideals. Don't you understand that all this is just a destined empty dream? You are just a pawn of the false emperor, and you will never be able to transcend the fate that cannot be torn apart!"
There was a despair in its words that seemed to come from the abyss, as if it was questioning Fulgrim.
Every word was a complete destruction of Fulgrim's lifelong pursuit.
The demon Fulgrim no longer hides his inner distortion and resentment. He wants to make Fulgrim understand that both the Emperor and his own past have long been swallowed up by hypocrisy and corruption and can never be recovered.
But Fulgrim was not shaken by the demon Fulgrim's rage and ridicule. His expression remained cold and firm, as if he was calm about everything in front of him.
Facing the fiery words of the demon Fulgrim, Fulgrim chose not to respond. To him, they were nothing but empty noise.
After all, arguing is futile.
Everything the other person said was just venting the emptiness and pain deep in his heart.
Then, Fulgrim simply shook his head and chuckled, and retorted:
"Everything you said is your own fantasy. What you don't understand is the truth that Chaos has extinguished, concealed, and can never surpass!"
Before he finished speaking, he swung the flaming scimitar in his hand without the slightest hesitation. The blazing golden flame cut through the night sky like a meteor, and the light instantly swallowed up the surrounding darkness.
Following closely behind, it was Fulgrim who slashed at the demon Fulgrim with astonishing speed.
Seeing this, the demon Fulgrim suddenly waved his four arms, and his two swords flashed with evil light, welcoming Fulgrim, who was much smaller in size and build than him.
Zheng——!
Clang——!
The harsh sound of metal friction seemed to shake the heaven and earth.
Boom—boom—! !
The space began to fluctuate violently under the powerful impact. The two extraordinary forces intertwined together, producing a terrifying shock wave that tore apart everything around.
A huge gust of wind swept past, flying debris danced in the air, and the clouds in the sky were torn apart by the fierce battle.
This is a contest between "demigod" beings. The strength between them has surpassed the comprehension of ordinary life, and almost every blow can shake the world around them.
Neither the Emperor's Son nor the Mankind's Son can clearly see the trajectory and movements of their respective "fathers". They can only vaguely see two balls of pink, purple and gold "light" entangled and bringing endless shock.
At this stage, the New Argo has been put on hold due to the fierce confrontation between the two Primarchs.
Those chaotic creatures who sensed that the situation was not good made the decision almost at the same time.
As if guided by some invisible force, they turned around and fled at high speed towards the "pillar of light" connecting the physical universe and the subspace.
The Chaos creatures realized that if they did not break away in time, they might be completely swallowed up by the aftermath of this battle instead of being expelled back into the Warp as in the past.
At the same time, Fulgrim's arrival caused great fluctuations among the Emperor's Children.
Even those children of the Emperor who had long been lost in Chaos were shaken as never before at this moment.
Especially under the cover of Fulgrim's "glory", the endless emptiness and loneliness in their hearts seemed to be suddenly filled.
To them, Fulgrim of the main universe is not just a "father" whom they have never met, but more like some kind of long-lost "guidance", a long-lost sense of belonging, which allows the long-lost souls to finally find the way forward.
Especially those veterans of the Emperor's Children who were almost infected by the "Glory" of the cloned Primarch, who wanted to return to the service of the Human Empire, and who participated in the Battles of Istvaan III and V.
At this moment, "they" seem to have regained their lost original intention.
Then, these elite veterans with strong fighting power even began to kill the surrounding demonic creatures and heretics, determined to correct their past mistakes and return to the side of their father and the Emperor.
Return to the ideals and glory of the past.
However, there were many of the Emperor's Children who had completely fallen into Chaos, becoming slaves to its pleasure, yet were immune to Fulgrim's influence.
To these Emperor's children who no longer cared about fighting or victory, Fulgrim's "greatness" was nothing more than a ridiculous disguise and not even worth their time.
Therefore, they neither wanted to waste their energy fighting the Legion of the Sons of Man, nor did they want to witness the impotent rage of their "poor father", so they also chose to flee into the warp.
What's more, immersed in the pleasure and corruption of chaos, they no longer yearn for the so-called glory and dignity.
However, a group of "Emperor's Children" also took advantage of the chaos and entered the warp.
In fact, Fulgrim's fierce battle with the demon Fulgrim attracted the attention of countless "eyes", including those evil spirits hiding in the warp.
This made it so that no one noticed that a group of Alphas who possessed the most advanced concealment technology of the Main Universe Empire and had received exclusive psychic training appeared in the central area of the city of New Argo.
They took this opportunity to release the psychic barrier and quietly eliminated a large number of lone children of the Emperor.
Afterwards, these Alphas disguised themselves as the "unlucky guys" they had killed and went deep into the subspace.
