Warhammer: Opening is a Crisis of Doom

When Guilliman was recovering, he made many guesses about what happened to Ryan in the past ten thousand years.

Either this guy has recognized his own subspace essence, awakened the horned demon form and entered the subspace to hunt down traitors.

Or he was beaten into the stasis force field like himself, waiting for someone to save him.

In the decisive battle in Caliban, Luthor also received the blessing of chaos, and it was normal for Ryan to lose.

The result was beyond Guilliman's expectations.

The Lord of the First Legion, the Lion of the Empire, and one of the most outstanding Primarchs under the Emperor, Lion King-Lion sleeps in the core area of ​​the Stone Fortress.

He didn't awaken the tauren demon form, nor was he beaten into the stasis field.

Just in the core area of ​​the Megalith Fortress, lying on the rock like a Sleeping Beauty, sleeping.

Guilliman observed that some runes belonging to the subspace appeared on Lion's body, exuding a strong aura of the subspace.

Obviously, Ryan has recognized the essence of his subspace.

Those runes belonging to the warp are the best proof.

It's just that he has not fully awakened, and is in a specious state.

That is to say, half of the foot is in, and half of the foot is still outside.

Seeing Ryan, Guilliman was really stunned.

The opponent just fell asleep in the core area of ​​the giant stone fortress.

Just lying there on a black, smooth giant rock.

Like the sleeping princess who ate a poisoned apple in the story of the seven dwarfs.

There didn't appear to be any fatal injuries on the body.

More importantly, Ryan didn't stay in the stasis field, just lying on the rock like that.

There was no trace of age left on his face.

Just like when we parted 10,000 years ago.

This is not in line with common sense.

"Lane."

"Lane."

"waking up"

Guilliman called a few times, but the other party didn't respond at all.

After a while, Guilliman spoke again.

"Russ said that if you can't beat him in a duel, you will only play tricks. Also, he is about to become a warmaster. He said that he is the most suitable candidate, and he does not know how many times better than you."

Ryan, who was sleeping, moved his fingers, but soon there was no movement.

Looking at Lion who was still sleeping, Guilliman thought for a moment.

It may take Jaghatai, Primarch of the White Scars, to wake Lion up.

Only Jaghatai can meet the two requirements of white robe and knight that Prince Charming needs.

Guilliman was wearing blue power armor, and even the cloak was light blue with gold trim.

Thinking of Chagatai lovingly hugging Ryan, the picture is so beautiful.

Guilliman suddenly felt goose bumps.

It's terrible, so don't think about it.

Guilliman took two steps closer, but found himself blocked by an invisible force field.

At this time, he discovered that there was a circle of special runes around the rock where Ryan was sleeping, wrapping the huge rock, forming a special force field.

This force field is very special, it can prevent the intrusion of the outside world, as if the time inside has been slowed down.

After probing, Guilliman probed out the approximate range of the force field.

As long as you don't get too close to the rock where Ryan sleeps, it won't activate.

Standing outside the force field, Guilliman surveyed the sleeping lion.

There were still bright red blood stains on Ryan's body, as if it had just been stained.

The clothes on his body were also in tatters, obviously he had gone through an unimaginable battle.

"What's going on here?" Guilliman looked at the small dark watchers in white robes.

This mysterious race contains many secrets that even Guilliman does not know.

The Chaos Demon is very afraid of these white-robed villains, and it seems that the two have a long history.

"The lion has crossed time, causing some unknown consequences in his body. Now we can only put him in the time force field, otherwise the power of time will kill him instantly." A dark watchman walked Go forward and explain Lion's situation to Guilliman.

The other party's voice directly appeared in Guilliman's mind, like some kind of special ability to directly talk to the thinking consciousness.

Guilliman circled the giant rock where Lion was sleeping, carefully looked at the special rune and the sleeping Lion, frowning.

"How long has he spanned?"

"Ten thousand years." said the little man in the white robe. "He was sent from the subspace storm caused by the Caliban explosion to the eve of the Great Rift 10,000 years later. His absence for the intervening 10,000 years had serious consequences , some corrective laws try to erase him and maintain the balance of the universe."

"How could the time deviate so much?" Guilliman's brow showed a trace of confusion.

The Warp can cause time deviations and even help people cross timelines.

But now there are too many deviations! !

Ten thousand years.

"This is the consequence of using the three artifacts of destiny. Ryan has been using a special artifact during Horus' rebellion to help him cross the storm of destruction. This artifact causes the past, present, and future to overlap. Sending him from Caliban 10,000 years ago to the Stone Fortress formed a closed loop of fate."

"However, it also caused serious consequences. He is likely to be corrected, and he can only survive in a time force field different from the main universe."

Hearing what the Dark Watcher said, Guilliman had one head and two big ones, "What are the three artifacts of Destiny?"

"This secret is very old, and the twists and turns in it are far beyond what ordinary people can imagine." The dark watcher said.

"Let's hear it." Guilliman shrugged and prepared himself mentally.

Only by knowing the cause and effect can he make a correct judgment.

Seeing Guilliman persist, the Darkwatch revealed an ancient secret.

This secret concerns the origin, prosperity and ruin of their race.

When everything in the universe was just born, even the Old Sages and Star Gods were not yet active.

Their family has already begun to study the universe and subspace.

The warp of any universe is initially peaceful.

An active Warp cannot be created without enough life emotions.

The Warp was barren back then.

There is no current etheric ocean current, just like a pool of stagnant water.

The warp and the real universe go hand in hand.

Without prosperous life, there would be no magnificent and mysterious subspace.

The dead silence of the Warp also meant that there was no magic or other supernatural powers that exist today.

The saddest thing is that the laws of physics at that time were imperfect.

"The physical laws of the universe are not perfect??" Guilliman said with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

This is a bit inconsistent with his three views.

Didn't the universe evolve with a bang?

Why do you have to come a little bit?

But think about the history of the universe of more than 10 billion years, counting your past and present lives, you can only live less than a thousand years.

Not even a fraction.

It is really not enough to use one's own three views to refute the theories of those who have experienced it.

Guilliman put away his arrogance and refutation.

He remembered a story, the story of a target.

It is said that a gunman fired a single shot and hit ten consecutive targets.

Then a community of microbiome scientists arrived at unchanging truths after a lifetime of research and observation.

That is, there are ten big holes in the target.

This is a great truth.

In this long period of successive birth, prosperity and destruction of this microbial community.

This truth has not changed in any way through hundreds of iterations of microbial birth, old age, sickness and death.

However, from a human perspective, is ten targets and ten holes really an eternal truth?

Any truth that claims to never change from a human point of view, will it really never change?

Some people always think that the universe is a precise structure, but they never think about why the universe operates like this?

Some people think that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, water flows downhill, and planets should be round. These are the truths of the universe, and they will never change since the birth of the universe.

But is this really the truth?

Or is it just the natural state of the evolution of the universe, which is considered to be the truth.

"Yes, just like life evolved from single cells, the universe also evolved slowly. Nothing is perfect from the beginning." Dark Watcher said with a hint of sadness in his tone, recalling the past of decaying civilization , is always embarrassing.

In the universe at that time, everything was in its infancy.

The laws of physics underpinning the operation of all things are imperfect and full of errors and omissions.

However, life was born in such an environment.

Gas life, carbon-based life, silicon-based life, planetary life benefit from imperfect physical laws.

There are also so many kinds of life born in the universe that it is difficult to count.

As the number of beings increased, the Warp became active.

Under the joint influence of the universe and many civilized races, many laws of the universe gradually took shape and became perfect.

This process is like the evolution of life, from single cells to animals and plants, slowly evolving from infinite to orderly.

However, as civilized races develop, the question of resources arises.

The universe is so big, and the speed of development of a race is unimaginable. The stronger the technology, the faster the development, and the more resources it occupies.

It only took more than 10,000 years for human beings to set foot on the starry sky and occupy two-thirds of the territory of the Milky Way.

It takes a race ten thousand years to occupy a galaxy.

The universe has evolved for more than 10 billion years, and one can imagine how crowded the universe is.

With the development of civilization, the problem of resources has become more and more serious.

Many races began to look for a new way out.

Pursue mechanical ascension, spiritual ascension, and leave the real universe.

Or the whole family migrates and embarks on the road to other universes.

However, the problem of resources eventually led all civilizations to war.

The war destroyed everything, and countless civilizations fell in the terrible war.

Emotions such as resentment, hatred, and unwillingness also gave birth to all kinds of terrifying subspace creatures.

In that crazy era, the Dark Watcher who had completed transcendence and ascension was also forced to be involved in that war.

Those civilizations are so powerful that they use natural laws, natural laws, physical laws, mathematical laws and other means to fight.

Such a battlefield is countless times more terrifying than the battle of the gods.

No words can describe that terrifying war.

The galaxy shattered, the laws collapsed, and everything in the universe was reshaped.

Countless races have thus become history and turned into clouds of smoke.

Today's Milky Way is but a corner of the ruins of past wars.

Those so-called unchanging truths are nothing but the remnants of many civilized wars.

In that battle, the Dark Watcher suffered heavy casualties, and had to face the warp that had undergone terrifying mutations.

Under the collision of countless intense emotions, some concepts such as fate and time are also materialized.

When those terrifying warp creatures were born, the Dark Watcher realized that the war behind it was not simple.

For the first time, they recognized the existence of Chaos.

Chaos drives the birth of all things, and then drives the destruction of all things.

Just like a farmer planting rice, the cycle repeats.

The Ouroboros is a condensed model of chaos.

Connected end to end, destruction and birth coexist.

The surviving Darkwatchers cut off its power and sealed it in Caliban, trying to find a way to fight Chaos by studying this abomination.

After that battle of civilizations, the Dark Watcher stopped interfering in the real universe and turned to secretly observing.

They watched the Old Ones rise from the ashes, breed life across the galaxy, and build webways against the monsters of the Warp.

For a while, they did succeed.

Without the feed of biological emotion, the subspace regained its calm.

It's a pity that the Old Sage was finally destroyed by the crazy Necrontyr.

This is also the embodiment of chaos, rise, prosperity, fall, destruction.

No matter what you do, the ultimate fate is difficult to change.

Driven by chaos, this is an inevitable fate that no civilization can escape.

As the heirs of the Old Ones, so are the Eldar.

Their fall was so tragic, the huge reverberation created the Eye of Terror, tore apart the curtain of reality and the warp, leaving wounds that could never heal.

As time passed, humanity rose up in the galaxy and stepped onto the stage.

This civilization is advancing its technology at a rate unheard of by the Darkwatch.

All kinds of mysterious technologies represent that they have reached the pinnacle of the laws of physics.

The road to ascension is close at hand.

Unfortunately, their fate is not different.

It rises quickly and declines quickly.

Iron Rebellion, Warp Storm.

Humanity's first star civilization was destroyed.

Soon, the Emperor rose again on Terra, intending to establish a second star civilization, trying to reverse the inevitable fate of human extinction.

To accomplish this plan, the Emperor created twenty Primarchs.

The First Primarch, Lion, is exiled in Caliban.

Caliban at the time was a dead world, covered in dense forests.

There are all kinds of deadly horrible plants in the forest, and even more terrifying giant beasts.

These behemoths are no ordinary beings, twisted and deadly by the taint of the warp.

And the pollution of these subspaces is the influence of ouroboros, one of the three artifacts of destiny deep in the core of the planet.

The rise and failure of mankind has attracted the attention of the Dark Watcher.

They had never seen such a rapidly rising race.

It only took more than 10,000 years from the beginning of civilization to boarding the starry sky and controlling the galaxy.

Far beyond any race they have ever observed.

They realize that humans may be the sword against Chaos.

When the Primarch descended on Caliban, the Darkwatch kept an eye on the young Primarch.

And ready to start their own official battle against chaos.

After Horus's betrayal, they directed Lion to find an artifact that contained the power of Ouroboros and helped him through the Ruinstorm.

However, Ryan relied too much on it, which led to the tragedy that followed.

In the duel with Luther, Ryan awakened the subspace form and successfully defeated Luther.

However, his awakening also spurred that artifact of fate, the power of Ouroboros to form a trinity.

The past, present, and future are directly connected, forming a time tunnel.

Ryan was sucked into it and sent into the time tunnel.

He only left the lion helmet and lion sword to his descendants, and then disappeared.

After the destruction of Caliban, the Dark Watcher entered the Stone Fortress and formally directed the Dark Angels to fight against Chaos.

In the early stage of the Great Rift, under the guidance of the Dark Watcher, Lord Cypher, the Fallen Angels and the Dark Angels once again assembled the three major artifacts, completed the closed loop, and rescued Ryan from the time tunnel.

But time travel has serious consequences that no one can afford.

The universe corrects itself.

Although Ryan was saved, he could only save his life with the help of the time force field and fell into a coma.

Guilliman stood where he was, listening to the Dark Destroyer tell the past history.

There is no doubt that this period of history is very frightening.

Deals with various struggles in the early days of the universe, and the nature of chaos.

Chaos promotes the birth and evolution of all things, and promotes the destruction of all things. It is a very complicated existence.

From the perspective of racial civilization, many creatures have to fight against it, so that the race will not go extinct.

And the answer to the mystery of Ryan's disappearance for 10,000 years.

The dark watcher also revealed a message, in fact, many demons used to be intelligent races, but after despair, they fell into the embrace of chaos and became demons.

They feel that Chaos will surely win the final victory.

All struggle and effort are useless.

He chose to take refuge in Chaos, which is the so-called ascending demon.

Many human traitors will also take the path of ascension and embrace chaos.

After the Dark Watcher finished speaking, Guilliman was silent for a long time.

With such a huge amount of information, he had to sort out his thoughts.

Well, it's really unimaginable.

The battle between humans and subspace is not as simple as the battle between humans and the four gods.

When the four gods die, new four gods will emerge.

As the saying goes, if one of the Four Gods is defeated, tens of thousands of Four Gods will stand up.

The evil empire is bound to fall to the oceanic war of warp demons.

Thinking of this, Guilliman felt a pain in his ass.

According to the theory that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, chaos is correct.

After all, so many races have turned to Chaos.

"After all this, I'm the ultimate villain??" Guilliman slandered, chaos is what the people want.

Several dark watchers told the history, which made Guilliman clearly realize how terrifying the enemy he faced was.

After talking about that ancient history, the watchman remained silent and did not continue to speak.

They stood there quietly, as if time didn't matter to them.

"Can we win?" Guilliman looked at several Dark Watchers and asked.

He really wanted to add, if you can't win, can you ask if there is a better way to join Chaos, do you want to recommend someone?

Do you want to talk about worldly ways?

"There is little hope," said the Darkwatcher.

"And do you know the way to other universes?" Guilliman asked.

Well, you can't win, so many civilizations that master the laws of nature, mathematics, and can control and modify the laws of physics have all been killed.

The Empire of Man is a fart.

Run with the empire.

As the saying goes, three years in Hedong and three years in Hexi, don't bully human beings into poverty.

Now it is just a strategic retreat, and I will definitely fight back when I have a chance in the future.

The road to the rise of the empire was temporarily interrupted.

The road to the wandering empire begins.

If you can't beat Chaos, go to other universes to bully those little guys, wouldn't it be happier.

It's best to come to a universe with low magic and low martial arts, so that I can dominate myself.

It seems to have seen Guilliman's small thoughts.

The Dark Watcher was silent for a moment before speaking.

"The last road leading to other universes on a large scale is located in the eternal battlefield deep in the subspace. The four gods have been fighting for it. Whoever can control that road will control the power of chaos. Other words, there are still a few roads. The trails to other universes, but the scale allowed to pass is very small, only a few hundred people can pass through at most."

Guilliman:

Well, Sishen cut his back and didn't even have to run.

As the Regent of the Empire, Guilliman still has integrity and will not leave the Empire and run away.

Of course, if the Emperor insisted on killing him, he would also run away with a bucket in his hands.

You must have a flexible bottom line in life, and don't be too rigid.

Preserving yourself is the most important thing, followed by saving others.

"Then why did you reveal this secret to me?" Guilliman looked at several Dark Watchers.

"We need to formally form an alliance with humans to fight against chaos." The Dark Watcher raised his head rarely.

There was darkness inside the white robe, and the only thing that could be seen was a pair of scarlet eyes.

Guilliman frowned, "Alliance?"

"Yes, after the big rift appeared, chaos eroded the real universe at an unprecedented speed, and a large number of physical laws were distorted and changed. If they cannot be repelled in time, it is likely to bring about a terrible crisis, and it may reshape the universe. The real universe. This universe will also completely fall and become the paradise and battlefield of the gods.”

"You are the regent of the human empire, and you hold the power of the entire race. Only by cooperating with you can we fight against chaos."

"Then what should I do?" Guilliman asked.

"Go to Terra and find a way to revive and return your brother. You are a special existence, a mixture of subspace and reality. You can hold the authority of two worlds at the same time, which is a huge advantage." Darkness The watchman said, "Lian is sleeping here. We can find a way to help him avoid being harmed by time, but there is no way to wake him up. Perhaps your Lord of Humanity, the Emperor, has a way to wake him up."

"Then form an alliance with you, what help will you provide me?" Guilliman said.

"Our rich experience, and some ancient technologies that will not be polluted by chaos." The dark watcher said.

"Sounds like a good covenant." Guilliman smiled.

In terms of technology, Guilliman has a database. To be honest, he can get a lot of technical support if he completes the task step by step.

The rich experience in fighting the Dark Watcher and Chaos is what he desperately needs.

Chaos is too powerful for alliances to be avoided.

The two sides talked for a long time, and the dark watcher promised to assist the human empire to create a batch of weapons that can fight against demons.

Guilliman promised to provide them with the necessary resources to help them awaken some ancient members.

After the covenant was made, the Darkwatch sent Guilliman out.

The walls were liquefied by their special means, and a path to the outside world appeared.

Guilliman stepped out.

Calga had been waiting outside for a long time, pacing back and forth with an anxious expression on his face.

As soon as Guilliman walked into the inner passage, the original entrance of the passage turned into a wall, which made Calgar very disturbed.

If something happened to the original body, rescue would be too late.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

Guilliman stepped out.

"My lord." Calgar stepped forward and saluted.

Guilliman didn't say much, just nodded.

Obviously, he didn't want to say much about the covenant with the Dark Watcher.

Calgar and the others didn't ask too much.

The imperial regents have their own considerations, they just need to obey.

After expelling Ouroboros and quelling this demon disaster, the rest of the matter is basically settled.

However, within a short while of being happy, everyone got a piece of bad news.

That's Luthor running away.

As the biggest stain of the Dark Angels, Luther, who was bewitched by chaos and did not hesitate to attack his genetic father, escaped from the prison where he was held.

When many dark angels heard the news, their faces changed instantly.

At Guilliman's request, Ezekiel led him into the room where Luthor had been held.

The cell was empty.

The chains, etched with ritual runes and prayers, were broken and scattered across the uneven flagstone floor.

Guilliman inspected it for a moment, smelling the disgusting smell of warp daemons in the air.

The coldness that belongs to the inanimate enveloped the room.

The lingering demonic aura made ordinary people naturally feel a sense of fear.

Guilliman stood in the cell, looked around, and finally set his sights on the door.

The twisted and damaged door seemed to have been subjected to a violent explosion and high temperature. There used to be more than a hundred protective measures at the entrance, but now all of them have been erased by various evil methods.

The chaplains of the warband have evolved the cell several times, but the stench of demons still lingers here.

It seems that the change spirit who interfered with the giant stone fortress and tried to provoke a civil war in the empire even sent a gift package to the empire before leaving.

When I see this guy in the future, I won't be relieved unless I chop a few more knives.

Ezekiel stood cautiously behind Guilliman.

Luthor and the Fallen are a stain that the Dark Angels Chapter has been trying to erase.

He was a little worried that the regent of the empire would have a dislike for the Dark Angels after knowing this.

"The prisoners here are hunted by yourselves, but there is one thing I need to remind you."

After checking the cell, Guilliman looked at Ezekiel, "If there is any news, please let me know. I have some questions to ask. Don't have any self-assertive ideas. Arrest Luther and hand it over to me."

"Regent, please hand over this prisoner to the Dark Angels." Ezekiel said, "He is related to the honor of the war group. Fallen angels are a stain that the Dark Angels absolutely cannot tolerate. They know too many secrets."

"Honor? Secret?" Guilliman smiled. "Are you sure you want to deal with Luthor yourself?"

"Yes, Regent," said Ezekiel.

"Whatever you want, as long as you think keeping a secret is more important than reviving your genetic father?" Guilliman's tone was dramatic.

His words left Ezekiel stunned.

"Prince Regent, are you saying that you have a way to revive the lion?" Ezekiel said with a hint of haste.

"I'll have to go to Terra to be sure, but Luther was the last one to fight the lion, and he must know how much damage he did to the lion. Only by knowing the wound can the lion be awakened," Guilliman said. .

"Is it really possible?" Ezekiel asked nervously.

Except for the Blood Angels, the original warbands of the Iron Hands have an important task, which is to find the genetic father of the warband.

The Space Wolves launch an expedition against the galaxy every once in a while.

The purpose is to find the missing Ruth.

The black uncles of the Salamanders battle group went around to dig out the artifacts left by Vulkan, and prepared to collect the artifacts to summon the dragon and find Vulkan.

The White Scars went to dig the graves of the Eldar when they had nothing to do, just to find Jaghatai lost in the depths of the webway.

Each Chapter has a fanatical obsession with finding its Gene-Father.

Guilliman said that Luthor's matter was related to the return of Lion.

Ezekiel, who didn't change his expression in the face of the wave of demons, started to stutter.

"Nothing is certain," Guilliman said, "but I will do my best to confirm the state of those brothers. If they have fallen asleep, then I will wake them up. If they are lost, then I will guide them back. For Ryan, I will naturally do my best, but if you don't cooperate, it will be very difficult for me."

Both the helper elves and the Darkwatch wanted to make their way to Terra, apparently, to connect themselves with the Emperor.

Now, the powerful forces such as the Colossus of God's Retribution and the brand-new fleet, Primaris Space Marines, have also come out.

With such a powerful military force, Guilliman also had the confidence to face the conservatives in Terra.

Even if he faced the Emperor directly, he still had the capital to talk.

Everyone is a comrade in arms against chaos, there is no need to make it so stiff.

It is still possible to sit down and chat calmly and discuss cooperation.

Of course, the premise is that everyone is equal.

If the Emperor still played tool theory, Guilliman turned around and left.

Use it as a tool for others and throw it away after use.

He might as well follow his own ideas.

The Dark Watcher also revealed that he wanted Guilliman to recall those Primarchs and strengthen the human race.

With the help of their technology, maybe it can be done.

According to some gossip, Sanguinius' body was turned into a moving sculpture aboard Horus' flagship, the Vengeful Spirit.

If the Spirit of Vengeance can be snatched over and Sanguinius' body found, there may be a chance to be resurrected.

After all, the soul has not been destroyed, and it can still manifest itself from time to time.

For Ferus, the Primarch of the Iron Hands, it is a little troublesome, after all, his head has been chopped off.

The headless body was snatched back by soldiers of the Iron Hands Legion.

The head was dedicated to Horus by the traitor Primarch - Fulgrim. It should have been taken by the Chaos War Gang in the later stage, and it was probably given to Huo Huo long ago.

However, Guilliman believes that with the right technology, it is possible to recreate a body.

The most critical point now is what the emperor's attitude is.

If this guy is determined to kill himself, or wants to use himself as a tool.

No matter what, Guilliman had to let the emperor know what it means to suddenly have a madman sharpen his sword at night, and the emperor's star is fluttering.

Turn your face today, and tomorrow the empire will welcome an overlord imprisoned in the palace.

The Emperor is indeed kind to humans.

But he really has no feelings for individuals at all.

Everyone praises Qin Shihuang's Great Wall, and everyone says that he is the same emperor through the ages.

But those who build the Great Wall don't think so.

You have to bring your own rations, and you have to work until you die, and you have to eat the supervisor's whip if you have nothing to do.

Who can stand it.

Guilliman is not an idiot who brought his own dry food to repair the Great Wall, was whipped by the supervisor, and yelled Qin Shihuang YYDS.

The emperor must step back, and both sides will talk on an equal footing, or they will not talk.

Talked with Ezekiel, tempted to help Ryan return, and successfully won the Dark Angels to stand firmly on his side.

The Dark Angels Chapter has many sub-chapters.

The statement of the mother group also represents the attitude of those subgroups.

When the time comes, win over the Fist of the Empire.

With the Great Rift as the boundary, on the side of the imperial sanctuary, Guilliman will have no obstacles, nor any large-scale forces that can resist him.

Terra was really emptied.

Satisfied with Ezekiel's promise of loyalty, Guilliman left and returned to his mothership.

Azrael is still asleep because of accepting the original casting upgrade.

Guilliman took a look, and after knowing that it would take some time to wake up, he decided not to wait.

After he explained some things to Ezekiel and others.

Then he took Celestine, Grey, Calgar and others and the huge fleet away.

This time the voyage was very simple, and that was to go to Terra and meet the Emperor.

Of course, before officially heading to Terra, he also had to make some preparations.

In order to be safe, Guilliman planned to go to the Beta-Garmon galaxy first, and use his power to replace the defenders and managers there with his own people.

The Beta-Garmon system sits at the confluence of several stable warp lanes. Is the fastest route to Terra.

Whoever controls the Beta-Garmon system can be said to have Tara by the throat.

Guilliman didn't have the slightest confidence in Tyra's conservative gang. For the sake of power, how terrible things they can do is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

During the Beast War, in order to fight for power, many departments turned a blind eye to the plight of the empire and only wanted to grab more power.

Had it not been for the last survivors of the Imperial Fist, the Kurds would have initiated the High Wall Protocol.

The orc warlord-beast will do what Horus failed to do, and that is take Terra.

Besides the turmoil of the Beast Wars, the bloody age of the State Church was also horrific.

Countless planets in the empire were accused of heresy and then exterminated directly, and the number of casualties was no less than that during the Horus Rebellion.

Not to mention the most notorious Abyss Expedition, the event of sending heads from thirty battle groups.

And the subsequent assassination of Sun Commander-in-Chief Makarius.

These things all show how serious the political struggle for power in the empire is.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Many absurd and unreasonable military decisions were made because of bureaucratic infighting.

In order to bring down political enemies and attack dissidents, they did not hesitate to betray their allies, and even sat back and watched the people of the empire be slaughtered by aliens and chaos.

Guilliman did not doubt that they would kill him.

You know, when the Emperor launched the War of Unification and the Great Crusade, the Custodians dealt with the assassins the most.

Those lunatics even dared to kill the Emperor for their own power and so-called beliefs.

Counting on those wastes to fight against chaos, it is very difficult to think about the future of mankind.

In other words, if playing tricks is equal to combat power, the bureaucrats on Terra would have already blown up the subspace and suppressed the four gods.

Controlling the Beta-Garmon galaxy is sending a message to those powerful and powerful.

Guilliman dares to touch anyone who dares to play tricks.

The Beta-Galmon galaxy is controlled, and the entire solar galaxy is equivalent to something in the bag, which is controlled by Guilliman.

The expedition fleet departs.

Some technical priests stayed, and they will assist the Dark Angels to complete the upgrade of the original cast, allowing them to embark on the true path of demigods.

Taking this opportunity, Ezekiel controlled the Dark Angels to launch a purge, cleaning up all the traitors and cultists lurking inside the Stone Fortress.

So did the turmoil at Stonehold.

The wheel of fate is still rolling forward.

Endless darkness.

His consciousness returned from nothingness.

He had been the Bringer of Death, the Angel of the Emperor.

Born from ancient genetic technology and knowledge.

Receive a makeover for a unique purpose.

A killing machine created for an empire as vast as humankind has ever seen it.

From Alien to Chaos, from the Armageddon Crusade to the Great Rift, he has fought countless battles.

With blades and explosive bombs, wipe out the enemies of humanity.

He is an instrument of the Emperor's will.

From a recruit to a veteran, and then to a company commander, he finally served as a great mentor.

He's been nearly taken down a dark path several times because of his arrogance, but each time he's been able to get back on track in time.

He has seen battle brothers die, seen friends betrayed, and fought those damned enemies.

However, this time, he almost thought that he too was about to end.

A malevolent force invaded his body, destroying the Emperor's bounty.

He saw the exclamation of those people, and the scalpel cut open his wound, exposing his internal organs.

Those people are trying to save him.

However, the viciousness of the warp is far beyond imagination.

They can corrode and destroy everything.

He fell into a deep sleep of nothingness until this moment came.

The mechanical sound echoed in his soul.

[Dark particle fusion progress reaches 100%, Guilliman's heart is successfully activated. 】

[It meets the conditions for the opening of the Emperor's Angel battle engine, and the data template has been opened. 】

[Personal information reading and loading. 】

[Target confirmation: Azrael, the Great Mentor of the Dark Angels. 】

【Loaded capacity: None】

[connected database: none]

[Detected that the target is in an endangered state, trying to repair the body]

[Body repair is in progress, the current progress is 1%]

[Body repair is complete, the current progress is 100%]

A series of reminders kept ringing in his mind.

Following these voices, Azrael could feel that his will regained control of his body.

It seems that Calgar saved him and gave him some special abilities.

The warm nutrient solution soaked his body, poured into his mouth, ears and eyes.

"It's commendable, he fits the transformation perfectly." A voice sounded.

Azrael tried hard to open his eyes, trying to see the speaker clearly.

However, a sticky substance glued his eyelids together, and with all his strength, he could barely open a gap.

He found himself lying in a transparent nutrition tank with several catheters connecting his body.

In front of the nutrition stand two mortals in white clothes.

With years of combat experience, Azrael judged their threat with his blurred vision.

Their height only reached his abdomen, and he could easily kill these two people.

Azrael noticed that both were working on the data pads they were carrying.

They were talking to each other, but he couldn't hear clearly and could only catch a few words.

There was a mechanical hum.

The nutrient solution soaking him began to decrease.

The coldness in the air covered his naked body, and his pores shrank and wrinkled.

The nutrition cabin was opened, and two mechanical servants walked over from the side, helping Azrael onto a bed pushed over.

"The heart of Guilliman is really a miracle. His body has been greatly strengthened. My God, I have never seen such an enhancement technology. It is flawless and stimulates cell strengthening from the root, and Optimize the gene end."

One of the men in white spoke excitedly, unable to hide the excitement in his heart.

"Praise Guilliman for his wisdom," said another man in white. "It's perfect."

At this time, two figures in power armor walked in from the door.

"Thank goodness, you're finally awake, Azrael. You've been in a coma for so long, I thought we'd lost you." A familiar voice came.

Azrael raised his head and looked at the other party.

A name popped into his head.

"Ezekiel," he said.

"It seems that there is no deviation in memory." Ezekiel looked at Azrael and said with a smile, unable to conceal his excitement.

Azrael tried to remember the past.

He was attacked, then fell into a coma, and he didn't know what happened afterwards.

"Calgar saved you, and the Regent of the Empire, the Thirteen Primarchs saved the Stone Fortress, he repelled the demons, and led us to activate the backhand left by the Dark Watcher to prevent the revival of the ancient monster, the only one Unfortunately, Luther escaped."

Ezekiel briefly summarizes what happened during this time.

"The Imperial Regent has arrived? Where is he?" Azrael said.

"He has already left and needs to go to Terra. He is going to tidy up the chaotic Terra and get a way from the emperor to return the lion." Ezekiel said, "but he also put forward conditions, he needs We sent someone to arrest Luther and get clues about Ryan from the other party."

"Luther, that damned traitor." Azrael's weak tone carried a trace of anger.

"I've already sent people to hunt it down, so you don't need to worry about that." Ezekiel said, "The most important thing for us now is to complete the original casting upgrade. I was a little worried about the original casting upgrade requested by the Regent of the Empire, so rashly Changing the Emperor's Gift could have dire consequences. But now that you're awake, I have a little faith in it."

"You have successfully fused Guilliman's heart, and then you only need to fuse other organs. It is estimated that within three months, you will be able to complete the upgrade, and you will become even stronger."

After introducing the situation in detail, Ezekiel asked the servant to push Azrael on the gurney to the next operating room.

The Great Mentor will complete the Primordial Cast upgrade and gain a new life.

Azrael didn't refuse, and let those servitors fiddle with it. He knew very well that the most important thing now was to cooperate, so that he could gain stronger power as soon as possible.

The heart of Guilliman implanted gave him a glimpse of another path.

If it succeeds, fighting against Luthor will become an extremely easy task.

With Guilliman awakened, the Empire changed in every way.

The empire's control over the various worlds has increased, its military strength has also increased, and science and rationality have gradually returned.

These changes are hope and the future for many people.

For many bureaucrats in Terra, it is undoubtedly a deadly noose.

Word spread quickly that Guilliman had left Monolith Fortress and was coming to Terra.

There was a rapid panic among the crowd.

Some Imperial newspapers, resentful of the Primarch's reform measures, even published a very radical report.

[Shameless traitors will desecrate Terra, this is the death of the empire]
